25. Refer to the DHCPv6 Relay
The DHCPv6 relay enhances an extended DHCP relay agent by providing support in IPv6. DHCP relays exchange messages
between a DHCPv6 server and client. A client and relay agent exist on the same link. When A DHCP request is received
from the client, the relay agent creates a relay forward message and sends it to a specified server address. If no addresses
are specified, the relay agent forwards the message to all DHCP server relay multicast addresses. The server creates a relay
reply and sends it back to the relay agent. The relay agent then sends back the response to the client.
Select + Add Row to launch a sub screen wherein a new DHCPv6 relay address and interface VLAN ID can be set.

table to set the address and interface of the DHCPv6 relay.
Enter an address for the DHCPv6 relay. These DHCPv6 relay receive messages from DHCPv6
clients and forward them to DHCPv6 servers. The DHCPv6 server sends responses back to the
relay, and the relay then sends these responses to the client on the local network.
Select this option to enable a spinner control to define a VLAN ID from 1 - 4,094 used as the
virtual interface for the DHCPv6 relay. The interface designation is only required for link local
and multicast addresses. A local link address is a locally derived address designed for
addressing on a single link for automatic address configuration, neighbor discovery or when
no routing resources are available.
