C HAPTER 16 | IP Configuration
Setting the Switch’s IP Address (IP Version 6)
– 644 –
PARAMETERS
These parameters are displayed:
◆ Default Gateway – Sets the IPv6 address of the default next hop
router to use when no routing information is known about an IPv6
address.
■
If no static routes are defined, you must define a gateway if the
target device is located in a different subnet.
■
An IPv6 default gateway can only be successfully set when a
network interface that directly connects to the gateway has been
configured on the switch.
■
An IPv6 address must be configured according to RFC 2373 “IPv6
Addressing Architecture,” using 8 colon-separated 16-bit
hexadecimal values. One double colon may be used in the address
to indicate the appropriate number of zeros required to fill the
undefined fields.
WEB INTERFACE
To configure an IPv6 default gateway for the switch:
1. Click IP, IPv6 Configuration.
2. Select Configure Global from the Action list.
3. Enter the IPv6 default gateway.
4. Click Apply.
