Router Advertisement
Path: Network > IPv6 > LAN Settings > Router Advertisement
To congure router advertisement settings:
1. Click Network > IPv6 > LAN Settings > Router Advertisement tab.
2. Complete the elds in the table on the next page and click Save.
Field Description
Status Toggle to ON to enable this feature.
Advertise Mode
Select Unsolicited Multicast to send router advertisements (RA’s) to all interfaces in the multicast group.
To restrict RA’s to well-known IPv6 addresses on the LAN, and thereby reduce overall network trac, select
Unicast only.
Advertise Interval
When advertisements are unsolicited multicast packets, this interval sets the maximum time between
advertisements from the interface. The actual duration between advertisements is a random value between
one third of this eld and this eld. The default is 30 seconds.
Managed
Toggle to ON to use the administered/stateful protocol for address auto-conguration. If set to OFF, the
host uses administered/stateful protocol for non-address auto conguration.
Other Toggle to ON to use administered/stateful protocol of other (i.e., non-address) information auto conguration.
Router Preference
This parameter (low/medium/high) determines the preference associated with the RADVD process of the
router. This is useful if there are other RADVD-enabled devices on the LAN as it helps avoid conicts for IPv6
clients.
MTU
The router advertisement will set this maximum transmission unit (MTU) value for all nodes in the LAN that
are auto-congured by the router. The default is 1500.
Router Lifetime
This value is present in RAs and indicates the usefulness of this router as a default router for the interface.
The default is 3600 seconds. Upon expiration of this value, a new RADVD exchange must take place between
the host and this router.
Save Click Save at the bottom to save and activate your settings.
Router Advertisements are analogous to IPv4 DHCP assignments for LAN clients, in that the router will assign
an IP address and supporting network information to devices that are congured to accept such details. Router
Advertisement is required in an IPv6 network is required for stateless auto conguration of the IPv6 LAN.
By conguring the Router Advertisement Daemon on this router, the router will listen on the LAN for router
solicitations and respond to these LAN hosts with router advisements.
