What is LAN IPv6 Address
« on: April 04, 2017, 02:33:42 PM »

I am trying to understand the IPv6 options on my DIR 615 HW E4 FW 5.10. Region Asia
When I set it to DHCPv6  it asks me to enter LAN IPv6.
Does this indicate a IPv6 LAN IP (something similar to private IP4 192.168.0.100) to be entered therein?
If so what IPv6 is for LAN IP?
Could someone please help me understand?   My ISP does not provide IPv6, I am just experimenting with these options.
Thanks in advance.

If your ISP does not offer IPv6, there is nothing to enter there. Most of that information will be supplied by your ISP.

It basically is the local side IPv6 address of the router. The address will depend on the IPv6 settings from your ISP.
