Table 3: IPv6 Parameters

3.3 How to Configure the DNS

DNS is a service that translates domain names into IP addresses. Using

DNS, names can be assigned to IP addresses and vice versa. If a DNS

server is available in your network, you can use DNS for your TPG.

If you use a domain name during the configuration process, you

must first enable and configure DNS. DNS is used for the

configuration of the time server, for example.

Proceed as follows:

1. Start the TPG Control Center.

2. Select NETWORK – DNS.

3. Configure the DNS parameters; see: Table 4 Ö31.

4. Click Save & Restart to confirm.

ª The settings are saved.

Parameters Description

IPv6 Enables/disables the IPv6 functionality of the TPG.

Automatic configuration Enables/disables the automatic assignment of the IPv6

address for the TPG.

IPv6 address Defines a manually assigned IPv6 Unicast address in the

n:n:n:n:n:n:n:n format for the TPG.

Every 'n' represents the hexadecimal value of one of the

eight 16 bit elements of the address. An IPv6 address

may be entered or displayed using a shortened version

when successive fields contain all zeros (0). In this case,

two colons (::) are used.

Router Defines the IPv6 unicast address of the router. The TPG

sends its 'Router Solicitations' (RS) to this router.

Prefix length Defines the length of the subnet prefix for the IPv6

address. The value 64 is preset.

Address ranges are indicated by prefixes. The prefix

length (number of bits used) is added to the IPv6 address

and specified as a decimal number. The decimal number

is separated by '/'.
