Network Port DHCPv6 Client Statistics

The Network Port DHCPv6 Client Statistics page displays the DHCPv6 client statistics values for the network
interface. The DHCPv6 client on the device exchanges several different types of UDP messages with one or
more network DHCPv6 servers during the process of acquiring address, prefix, or other relevant network
configuration information from the server. The values indicate the various counts that have accumulated
since they were last cleared.
To access the page, click System > Statistics > System > Network DHCPv6 in the navigation menu.
