LAN Configuration (IPv6)
IPv6 is an evolutionary upgrade to the Internet Protocol. IPv6 will coexist with the older IPv4 for sometime. IPv6 addresses are 128-bit IP address written in hexadecimal and separated by colons. An
example IPv6 address could be written like this: 300E:1389:3030:72EB:1D71:414B:1079:6AF3.
Some types of addresses contain long sequences of zeros that can be compressed (the address of
