Enabling The Dhcpv6 Server To Advertise Ipv6 Prefixes; Enabling Dhcpv6 Logging On The Dhcpv6 Server; Display And Maintenance Commands For Dhcpv6 Server - H3C SR8800-F Configuration Manual

Enabling the DHCPv6 server to advertise IPv6
prefixes
A DHCPv6 client can obtain an IPv6 prefix through DHCPv6 and use this IPv6 prefix to assign IPv6
addresses for clients in a downstream network. If the IPv6 prefix is in a different subnet than the IPv6
address of the DHCPv6 client's upstream interface, the clients in the downstream network cannot
access the external network. If the DHCPv6 server is on the same link as the DHCPv6 client, enable
the DHCPv6 server to advertise the IPv6 prefix.
To enable the DHCPv6 server to advertise IPv6 prefixes:
Step
1. Enter system view.
2. Enable the DHCPv6 server
to advertise IPv6 prefixes.

Enabling DHCPv6 logging on the DHCPv6 server

The DHCPv6 logging feature enables the DHCPv6 server to generate DHCPv6 logs and send them
to the information center. For information about the log destination and output rule configuration in
the information center, see Network Management and Monitoring Configuration Guide.
As a best practice, disable this feature if the log generation affects the device performance or
reduces the address and prefix allocation efficiency. For example, this situation might occur when a
large number of clients frequently come online or go offline.
To configure DHCPv6 logging on the DHCPv6 server:
Step
1. Enter system view.
2. Enable DHCPv6 logging.
