Interface Configuration (VLAN, Tunnel) mode
User Guidelines
The IPv6 DHCP service must be enavbled to use this feature. Enable the
IPv6 DHCP service using the service dhcpv6 command. If
relay-address
is an
IPv6 global address, then
relay-interface
is not required. If
relay-address
is a
link-local or multicast address, then
relay-interface
is required. Finally, a value
for
relay-address
is not specified, then a value for
relay-interface
must be
specified and the DHCPV6-ALLAGENTS multicast address (i.e. FF02::1:2)
is used to relay DHCPv6 messages to the relay server. An IP interface (VLAN)
can be configured in DHCP relay mode or DHCP server mode. Configuring
an interface in DHCP relay mode overwrites the DHCP server mode and vice-
versa.
An IP interface configured in relay mode cannot be configured as a DHCP
client (ip address dhcp).
Example
The following example configures VLAN 15 for DHCPv6 relay functionality.
console(config)#service dhcpv6
console(config)#interface vlan 15
console(config-if-vlan15)#ipv6 dhcp relay destination 2020:1::1
ipv6 dhcp server
Use the ipv6 dhcp server command in Interface Configuration mode to
configure DHCPv6 server functionality on an interface. For a particular
interface DHCPv6 server and DHCPv6 relay functions are mutually exclusive.
