Abstract
Description
technical field
[0001] The present invention relates to a method for automatically configuring a router. The present invention also relates to a method, router, computer program and computer readable medium for automatically configuring addresses. Background technique
[0002] Machine and plant engineers, especially from the field of automation technology, want to be able to operate their machines more easily and thus at lower cost in the future as well. Decentralized autoconfiguration mechanism for IPv6, SLAAC ("Stateless Address Autoconfiguration", see RFC 4862, where RFC stands for "Request for Comments" and RFC 4862 is available at https: / / tools.ietf.org / html / rfc4862) Allows each participant to autonomously assign itself its own unique IPv6 address. This simplifies the previous network configuration of the machine, since no correct address configuration is required for the machine engineer.
[0003] A particularly important commissioning situation for machine engineer...
