DHCP relay agent for IPv6
43
If you want to re-enable the feature after disabling it, you must specify the number of load-sharing
paths. The maximum number of paths the device supports is a value from 2 – 8. By entering a
command such as the following, iPv6 load-sharing will be re-enabled.
BigIron RX(config)# ipv6 load-sharing 4
Syntax: [no] ipv6 load-sharing<
num
>
The <
num
> parameter specifies the number of paths and can be from 2 – 8. The default is 4..
Changing the maximum number of load sharing paths for
IPv6
By default, IPv6 ECMP load sharing allows traffic to be balanced across up to four equal paths. You
can change the maximum number of paths the device supports to a value from 2 – 8.
To change the number of ECMP load sharing paths for IPv6, enter a command such as the
following.
BigIron RX(config)# ipv6 load-sharing 8
Syntax: [no] ipv6 load-sharing [<
num
>]
The <
num
> parameter specifies the number of paths and can be from 2 – 8. The default is 4.
Changing the ECMP load-sharing method for IPv6
Brocade devices can perform ECMP load-sharing for IPv6 traffic based on destination host address
or destination network. The default is network-based IP load sharing. If you want to enable the
device to perform host-based IP load sharing instead, enter the following command.
BigIron RX(config)# ipv6 load-sharing by-host
Syntax: [no] ipv6 load-sharing by-host
This command enables host-based ECMP load sharing on the device. The command also disables
network-based ECMP load-sharing at the same time.
DHCP relay agent for IPv6
A client locates a DHCP server using a reserve, link-scoped multicast address. For this reason, it is
a requirement for direct communication between the client and the server that they be attached by
the same link. However, in some situations in which ease of management, economy, and scalability
is a concern, it is useful to allow a DHCP client to send a message to a DHCP server by using a
DHCP relay agent. A DHCP relay agent, which may reside on the clients link, is used to relay
messages between the client and the server. A DHCP relay agent is transparent to the client.
When the relay agent receives a message to be relayed from a client to another relay agent, it
creates a new Relay-forward message, puts the original DHCP message to relay forward option, and
includes its only address and the address it received is in the same option.
