The address increased the address size to 128 bits or 16 bytes. You can use several options to represent the IPv6 address as
a text string.
Important:
You must change the expanded IPv6 address in the Change Network Configuration dialog.
You can represent the IPv6 address by using eight 16-bit hexadecimal blocks separated by colons (:); for example:
2001:0DB8:0000:0056:0000:ABCD:EF12:1234
Note:
You can use these IPv6 address notations only in the Add Device dialog.
You can use zeros in a 16-bit block; for example:
2001:DB8:0:56:0:ABCD:EF12:1234
You can use a double colon (::) to replace consecutive zeros or leading or trailing zeros within the same IPv6 address. A
double colon can appear only once in the IPv6 address; for example:
