Configuration guidelines

You can use the ipv6 dhcp relay server-address command to specify a maximum of eight DHCPv6
•
servers on the DHCP relay agent interface. The DHCPv6 relay agent forwards DHCP requests to all
the specified DHCPv6 servers.
If a specific DHCPv6 server address is a link-local address or multicast address, you must specify an
•
outgoing interface by using the interface keyword in the ipv6 dhcp relay server-address command.
Otherwise, DHCPv6 packets might fail to reach the DHCPv6 server.

Configuration procedure

To configure the DHCPv6 relay agent:
Step
1. Enter system view.
2. Enter interface view.
3. Enable DHCPv6 relay agent
on the interface.
4. Specify a DHCPv6 server.
5. Set the DSCP value for
DHCPv6 packets sent by the
DHCPv6 relay agent.
