IPv6
At present, the CN8000 supports two IPv6 address protocols: Link Local IPv6
Address, and IPv6 Stateless Autoconfiguration
Link Local IPv6 Address
At power on, the CN8000 is automatically configured with a Link Local IPv6
Address (for example, fe80::210:74ff:fe61:1ef). To find out what the Link
Local IPv6 Address is, log in with the CN8000’s IPv4 address and click the
Basic Settings icon. The address is displayed at the bottom of the Basic Settings
page (see page 30).
Once you have determined what the IPv6 address is, you can use it when
logging in from a browser or the Win and Java Client AP programs.
For example:
If you are logging in from a browser, you would key in
http://[fe80::2001:74ff:fe6e:59%5]
for the URL bar.
If you are logging in with the AP program, you would key:
fe80::2001:74ff:fe6e:59%5
for the IP field of the Server panel (see The Windows Client Connection
Screen, page 129).
Note: 1. To log in with the Link Local IPv6 Address, the client computer must
be on the same local network segment as the CN8000
2. The %5 is the %interface used by the client computer. To see your
client computer’s IPv6 address: from the command line issue the
following command: ipconfig /all. The % value appears at the
end of the IPv6 address.
