vi. Enable DHCP Hostname to instruct the TX40 device to include the device's system
name with DHCP requests as the Client FQDN option. The DHCP server can then be

server.
(config network interface my_wan)> ipv4 dhcp_hostname true
(config network interface my_wan)>

a. Enable IPv6 support:
(config network interface my_wan)> ipv6 enable true
(config network interface my_wan)>
b. Set the IPv6 type to DHCP:
(config network interface my_wan)> ipv6 type dhcpv6
(config network interface my_wan)>

settings by using the question mark (?):
(config network interface my_wan)> ipv6 ?
