Aten KN1000A [173/196] Link local ipv6 address

Appendix

157

IPv6

At present, the KN1000A supports two IPv6 address protocols: Link Local

IPv6 Address, and IPv6 Stateless Autoconfiguration

Link Local IPv6 Address

At power on, the KN1000A 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 KN1000A’s IPv4 address and click the

Device Information icon. The address is displayed at the bottom of the Device

Information page (see page 32).

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 WinClient AP, page 136).

Note: 1. To log in with the Link Local IPv6 Address, the client computer must

be on the same local network segment as the KN1000A

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.
