Configuring IPv6
DHCPv6 Address Assignment Configuration Guidelines
When configuring a DHCPv6 address assignment, consider these guidelines:
•
In the procedures, the specified interface must be one of these Layer 3 interfaces:
–
DHCPv6 IPv6 routing must be enabled on a Layer 3 interface.
–
SVI: a VLAN interface created by using the
interface vlan
vlan_id
command.
–
EtherChannel port channel in Layer 3 mode: a port-channel logical interface created by using
the
interface port-channel port-channel-number
command.
•
Before configuring DHCPv6, you must select a Switch Database Management (SDM) template that
supports IPv4 and IPv6.
•
The switch can act as a DHCPv6 client, server, or relay agent. The DHCPv6 client, server, and relay
function are mutually exclusive on an interface.
Enabling the DHCPv6 Server Function
Beginning in privileged EXEC mode, follow these steps to enable the DHCPv6 server function on an
interface.
Command
Purpose
Step 1
configure terminal
Enter global configuration mode.
Step 2
ipv6 dhcp pool
poolname
Enter DHCP pool configuration mode, and define the name
for the IPv6 DHCP pool. The pool name can be a symbolic
string (such as Engineering) or an integer (such as 0).
Step 3
address prefix
IPv6-prefix
lifetime
{
t1 t1
|
infinite
}
(Optional) Specify an address prefix for address assignment.
This address must be in hexadecimal, using 16-bit values
between colons.
lifetime
t1 t1
—Specify a time interval (in seconds) that an
IPv6 address prefix remains in the valid state. The range is 5
to 4294967295 seconds. Specify
infinite
for no time interval.
Step 4
link-address
IPv6-prefix
(Optional) Specify a link-address IPv6 prefix.
When an address on the incoming interface or a link-address
in the packet matches the specified IPv6 prefix, the server
uses the configuration information pool.
This address must be in hexadecimal, using 16-bit values
between colons.
Step 5
vendor-specific
vendor-id
(Optional) Enter vendor-specific configuration mode, and
enter a vendor-specific identification number. This number is
the vendor IANA Private Enterprise Number. The range is 1
to 4294967295.
Step 6
suboption
number
{
address
IPv6-address
|
ascii
ASCII-string
|
hex
hex-string
}
(Optional) Enter a vendor-specific suboption number. The
range is 1 to 65535. Enter an IPv6 address, ASCII text, or a
hex string as defined by the suboption parameters.
Step 7
exit
Return to DHCP pool configuration mode.
Step 8
exit
Return to global configuration mode.
