View the Tunnel Status and IPv6 Addresses
The IPv6 Tunnel Status screen displays the status of all active 6to4 and ISATAP tunnels and 
their IPv6 addresses.
To view the status of the tunnels and IPv6 addresses:
1. 
Log in to the unit:
a. In the address field of any of the qualified web browsers, enter https://192.168.1.1.
The NETGEAR Configuration Manager Login screen displays. 
b.  In the Username field, enter admin and in the Password / Passcode field, enter 
password.
Use lowercase letters. If you changed the password, enter your personalized 
password. Leave the domain as it is (geardomain).
c.  Click the Login button.
The Router Status screen displays. After five minutes of inactivity, which is the default 
login time-out, you are automatically logged out.
2. 
Select Monitoring > Router Status > Tunnel Status
3. 
View the IPv6 Tunnel Status table fields:
Tunnel Name. The tunnel name for the 6to4 tunnel is always sit0-WAN1 (SIT stands 
for simple Internet transition); the tunnel name for an ISATAP tunnel is isatapx-LAN, 
in which x is an integer.
IPv6 Address. The IPv6 address of the local tunnel endpoint.
Configure Stateless IP/ICMP Translation
Stateless IP/ICMP Translation (SIIT) is a transition mechanism algorithm that translates 
between IPv4 and IPv6 packet headers. Using SIIT, an IPv6 device that does not use a 
permanently assigned IPv4 addresses can communicate with an IPv4-only device.
SIIT functions with IPv4-translated addresses, which are addresses in the format 
0::ffff:0:0:0/96 for IPv6-enabled devices. You can substitute an IPv4 address in the format 
a.b.c.d for part of the IPv6 address so that the IPv4-translated address becomes 
0::ffff:0:a.b.c.d/96.
For SIIT to function, the routing mode must be IPv4 / IPv6. NETGEAR’s implementation of 
SIIT lets you enter a single IPv4 address on the SIIT screen. This IPv4 address is then used
