colons. You can reduce any four-digit group of zeros within an IPv6 address to a single zero 
or omit it. The following errors invalidate an IPv6 address:
•More than eight groups of hexadecimal quartets
•More than four hexadecimal characters in a quartet
•More than two colons in a row

You can type the domain name of your IPv6 ISP. Do not enter the domain name for the 
IPv4 ISP here. For example, if your ISP’s mail server is mail.xxx.yyy.zzz, type xxx.yyy.zzz 
as the domain name. If your ISP provided a domain name, type it in this field. For 
example, Earthlink Cable might require a host name of home, and Comcast sometimes 
supplies a domain name.

Set Up an IPv6 6rd Tunnel Internet Connection
The 6rd protocol makes it possible to deploy IPv6 to sites using a service provider’s IPv4 
network. 6rd uses the service provider’s own IPv6 address prefix. This limits the operational 
domain of 6rd to the service provider’s network and is under direct control of the service 
provider. The IPv6 service provided is equivalent to native IPv6. The 6rd mechanism relies 
on an algorithmic mapping between the IPv6 and IPv4 addresses that are assigned for use 
within the service provider’s network. This mapping allows for automatic determination of 
IPv4 tunnel endpoints from IPv6 prefixes, allowing stateless operation of 6rd.
With a 6rd Tunnel configuration, the router follows the RFC5969 standard, supporting two 
ways to establish a 6rd tunnel IPv6 WAN connection: 
•Auto Detect Mode. In IPv6 Auto Detect mode, when the router receives option 212 from 
the DHCPv4 option, auto detect selects the IPv6 as 6rd Tunnel setting. The router uses 
the 6rd option information to establish the 6rd connection. 
•Manual Mode. Select 6rd. If the router receives option 212, the fields are automatically 
completed. Otherwise, you must enter the 6rd settings. 
To set up an IPv6 6rd Tunnel Internet connection:

connected to the network.

provider
 ’s IPv4 network and attempts to establish an IPv6 6rd Tunnel connection. If 
the IPv4 network returns 6rd parameters to the router, the page adjusts to display the 
correct settings in this section.
