Configuring DHCPv6
Relay Service
Use IP Service > DHCPv6 > Relay (Add) page to enable the switch as a DHCPv6
Relay Agent and configure destination addresses or VLAN IDs to which client
DHCPv6 messages are forwarded. When the relay agent is enabled on a specified
VLAN, the switch listens to UDP port 547 for DHCPv6 messages on that VLAN. The
agent will forward the messages to the configured unicast addresses or to a
multicast address on configured VLANs or all VLANs.
Command Usage
When the unicast addresses of the DHCPv6 servers or other relay agents are
known, configure the addresses for each VLAN that will use the IPv6 DHCP relay
service.
Up to five DHCPv6 server or relay agent unicast addresses can be configured.
Use the “Multicast mode”, if you do not know the Unicast destination address of
the DHCPv6 servers or other relay agents.
All associated VLANs must have their L3 interface enabled using
the VLAN > Static (Action:Modify) page.
