Examples:

"::" is the address, which simply consists of zeros

"::1" is the address, which only consists of zeros and a 1 as the

last bit. This is the so-called host local address of IPv6 and is

the equivalent to 127.0.0.1 in the IPv4 world

"fe80::0211:22FF:FE33:4455"

is a typical so-called link local address, because it uses

the “fe80” prefix.

In URLs the colon interferes with the port section, therefore IPv6-

IP-addresses are written in brackets in an URL.

("http://[1080::8:800:200C:417A]:80/" ; the last “:80” simply sets

the port to 80, the default http port)

If you enabled the IPv6 protocol, the LANTIME always gets a link local address in

the format “fe80:: ….”, which is based upon the MAC address of the interface. If a

IPv6 router advertiser is available in your network and if you enabled the IPv6

autoconf feature, your LANTIME will be set up with up to three link global addresses

automatically.

The last parameter in this sub section is “Netlink mode”. This controls the port speed

and duplex mode of the selected Ethernet port. Under normal circumstances, you

should leave the default setting (“autosensing”) untouched, until your network

administrator tells you to change it.

High Availability Bonding

The standard moniker for this technology is IEEE 802.3ad, although it is known by

the common names of trunking, port trunking, teaming and link aggregation. The

conventional use of bonding under Linux is an implementation of this link

aggregation.

Only one link is used at any given time. At least two physical Ethernet ports must be

linked to one bonding group to activate this feature. The first Ethernet Port in one

bonding group provides the IP-Address and the net mask of this new virtual device.

The implementation of the LANTIME Bonding feature will not replace the MAC

address of the active ethernet port. Depending on the LINK state of the ETH-port the

IP address of the first port in the bonding group will be set to the next ethernet port.

All services will be restarted automatically.
