Configuring DHCPv6 Relay
– 649 –
Multicast - To forward the client IPv6 DHCP messages to all available
servers on configured VLANs, select the Multicast mode. In this mode the
DHCPv6 agent forwards DHCPv6 messages to the IPv6 DHCP multicast
address known as “All_DHCP_Servers” (FF05::1:3) which both DHCPv6
servers and relay agents listen to.
Destination IP - When Unicast mode is selected, enter an IPv6 address of a
DHCPv6 server or relay agent (Maximum: 5 for each configured VLAN).
Destination VLAN – When Multicast mode is selected, select a configured
VLAN or “All” (all VLANs). The DHCPv6 messages will be forwarded on the
configured VLANs or all VLANs using the “All_DHCP_Servers” address.
