3. Select and configure these settings:
IP Address (IPv6) Specifies how the system obtains an IP address.
• Obtain IP address automatically — Select if the
system gets an IP address automatically. DHCP is not
currently supported for IPv6. When you choose this
setting, the system uses Stateless Address
Autoconfiguration (SLAAC) to obtain a global address,
unique local address (ULA), or site-local address using
router advertisements. The network router(s) also must
be configured appropriately to provide the advertisement
packets.
• Enter IP address manually — Select if the IP address
will not be assigned automatically.
Changing this setting causes the system to restart.
Link-Local Displays the IPv6 address used for local communication
within a subnet.
Site-Local Displays the IPv6 address used for communication within
the site or organization.
Global Address Displays the IPv6 internet address.
Default Gateway
(IPv6) Displays the gateway currently assigned to the system.
If the system does not automatically obtain a gateway IP
address, enter one here.
Changing this setting causes the system to restart.

Domain
Name Displays the domain name currently assigned to the system.
If the system does not automatically obtain a domain name, enter
one here.
DNS Servers Displays the DNS servers currently assigned to the system.
If the system does not automatically obtain a DNS server address,
enter up to four DNS servers here.
• IPv6: You can specify IPv6 DNS server addresses for IP
addresses entered manually or obtained automatically (in the
case of a system on a hybrid network that obtains IPv4 DNS
server addresses via DHCPv4).
• IPv4: You can specify IPv4 DNS server addresses only when
the IPv4 address is entered manually. When the IPv4 address
is obtained automatically, the DNS Server addresses are also
obtained automatically.
Changing this setting causes the system to restart.
