Configuration > Network > IPv6

Use this page to make settings for printing using IPv6.

Note

• If an item is flagged by an asterisk, it means that the value obtained from the DHCP server has priority when using DHCP. The value currently in use appears in parentheses.
• The administrator can change settings on this page.

IPv6

Specify whether IPv6 is active or inactive.

Note

• If IPv6 is already in use, the setting cannot be changed from Active to Inactive. For example, if your browser uses IPv6 to connect to the device, Inactive cannot be selected.

Host Name

Enter the host name you want to set for the network interface board, using up to 31 characters. The default is RNP, followed by the MAC address of the active interface board. If you change the name to other than the default, the new name cannot begin with "RNP" or "rnp".

Note

• A hyphen can be used as part of the host name. However, hyphens cannot be used at the start or end of a host name or entered consecutively ("--", etc.).

Domain Name

Enter the name of the domain to which the device belongs, using up to 63 alphanumeric characters. Spaces cannot be used.

Link-local Address

Displays the link-local address of the network interface board.
The link-local address applies only within the local network (local segment) and begins with "fe80::", followed by an identifier generated from the MAC address of the active interface board.

Stateless Address

Specify the stateless address of the network interface board.

Stateful Address

Displays the stateful address obtained from the DHCPv6 server.

Manual Configuration Address

In the left box, enter the IPv6 address assigned for the network interface board.
In the right box, enter the prefix length of the IPv6 address, using a value between 1 and 128. The default is 64.

Note

• The following addresses cannot be set:
  Link-local addresses, multicast addresses, loopback addresses, IPv4-compatible addresses, and IPv4-mapped addresses

Details

Default Gateway Address*

Enter the default gateway address.
The default gateway address is the IPv6 address of the host or router used as the gateway when communicating (printing or exchanging information) with a computer on another network.
If Stateless Address Autoconfiguration is set to Active, the link-local address of the router is set as the default gateway address. If you specify a default gateway address here, that address is used.

Note

• The following addresses cannot be set:
  Site-local addresses, multicast addresses, loopback addresses, IPv4-compatible addresses, IPv4-mapped addresses, and global addresses

DNS Server 1*

Enter the DNS server IP address on the network.
When using DHCP, the primary DNS server IP address obtained from the DHCP server appears.

DNS Server 2*

Enter the DNS server IP address on the network.
When using DHCP, the secondary DNS server IP address obtained from the DHCP server appears.

DNS Protocol Priority

Select a priority protocol for DNS name resolution.

LPR, DIPRINT

Specify whether each protocol is active or inactive.
