DHCPv6 relay interface

A DHCPv6 relay agent allows sub-options to be attached to messages that are being
relayed by the switch to a DHCPv6 server. In turn, the DHCPv6 server can use this
information in determining an address to assign to a DHCPv6 client.

To configure an interface as a DHCPv6 relay:

1. Launch a web browser.

2. In the address field of your web browser, enter the IP address of the switch.

The login page displays.

3. Click the Main UI Login button.

The main UI login page displays in a new tab.

4. Enter admin as the user name, enter your local device password, and click the Login

button.
The first time that you log in, no password is required. However, you then must
specify a local device password to use each subsequent time that you log in.

The System Information page displays.

5. Select System > Services > DHCPv6 Relay.

The DHCPv6 Relay page displays.

The DHCPv6 Interface Configuration page displays.

6. Select one or more interfaces by taking one of the following actions:

To configure a single interface, select the check box associated with the interface,

or type the interface number in the Go To Interface field and click the Go button.

To configure multiple interfaces with the same settings, select the check box

associated with each interface.

To configure all interfaces with the same settings, select the check box in the

heading row.

7. From the Admin mode menu, select to enable or disable the DHCPv6 relay mode

on the interface.

Note: DHCPv6 relay and DHCPv6 server functions are mutually exclusive. For
information about configuring an interface as a DHCPv6 server, see Configure the
DHCPv6 settings for an interface
on page 129.

8. From the Relay Interface menu, select the interface, LAG, or VLAN that is connected

to the DHCPv6 relay server.
