Enable IPv6-only Mode
When you deploy a scanner appliance, it works in IPv4+v6 mode by default. You have the option to enable IPv6-only mode. When you enable IPv6-only mode, all communications is use IPv6 addresses instead of IPv4 addresses, and you can see additional menu in the LCD display for IPv6 network and proxy configurations.
Step 1 - Reset to IPv6-only Mode
The first step is to reset the network configuration on the appliance to use IPv6-only mode. Perform the following steps:
- Go to SETUP NETWORK menu and press ENTER.
- Press the Down arrow to advance through the menu options. When the RESET NETWORK SETTINGS menu displays, press ENTER.
- Press the Down arrow to advance through the menu options. When the RESET TO IPv6 ONLY MODE? menu option displays, press ENTER to continue. Or press the Up arrow to quit this procedure and return to SETUP NETWORK menu.
Step 2 - Configure Network and Proxy Settings (optional)
In IPv6-only mode, you have the option to configure the scanner network interface with either a manual or automatic IPv6 configuration. IPv6-only mode supports proxy and VLAN configurations. Proxy and VLAN configurations work the same whether you are in IPv4+v6 mode or IPv6-only mode.
