Setting IPv6 Addresses

1W2X-00L

The IPv6 addresses of the machine can be congur

ed via the Remote UI. Before

setting IPv6 addresses, check the IPv4 address settings (

Viewing IPv4

Settings(P

. 38) ). You need to set the correct IPv4 settings to use IPv6 addresses.

Note that the scan function that uses the scanner driver or MF Scan Utility is not

available in an IPv6 environment. The machine can use the following multiple IPv6

addresses:

Type Description

Link-local address An address that is only valid within a subnet or link and cannot be used to communicate with

vices beyond a router. A link-local address is automatically set when the IPv6 function of the

machine is enabled.

Manual address An address that is entered manually. When using this address, specify the prex length and default

router address.

Stateless address An address that is generated automatically using the MAC address of the machine and the network

prex that is advertised by the router. Stateless addresses are discarded when the machine is

restarted (or turned ON).

Stateful address An address obtained from a DHCP server using DHCPv6.
