Creating and Configuring an RADVD Server

The Router Advertisement Daemon (RADVD) sends messages required for IPv6 stateless auto-configuration. It also sends router advertisement (RA) messages periodically to the LAN.

  1. Open Network Manager.
  2. Go to LAN > DHCP Server > RADVD.
  3. Click Add RADVD.

    The Add RADVD window appears.

  4. Configure the settings.

    User Action

    WAN port

    Select a WAN port for outgoing connections.

    RA service port

    Select a LAN port to connect to the server.

    Prefix

    Specify the prefix for the IP address.

    Specify the prefix length for the adapter.

    Tip:

    Obtain the prefix and the prefix length information from your ISP.

    Specify the length of time that an IP address is reserved for a DHCP client. The IP address is made available to other clients when the lease expires.
