STEP  5 To configure the interface as a DHCPv6 client so that the interface is able to 
receive information from the DHCPv6 server for DHCPv6 auto configuration 
feature, enter the DHCPv6 Client fields:
• Stateless—Check Enable to enable the interface as a stateless DHCPv6 
client. 
• Minimum Information Refresh Time—Select either Infinite (no refresh 
unless the server sends this option) or User Defined to manually set a value. 
This value is used to put a floor on the refresh time value. If the server sends 
a refresh time option that is less than this value, this value is used instead. 
• Information Refresh Time—Select either Infinite (no refresh unless the 
server sends this option) or User Defined to manually set a value. This value 
indicates how often the switch will refresh information received from the 
DHCPv6 server. If this option is not received from the server, the value 
entered here is used. 
STEP  6 Click Apply. The IPv6 interface settings are defined, and the Running Configuration 
is updated.
Configuring Domain Name System
The Domain Name System (DNS) translates domain names into IP addresses for 
the purpose of locating and addressing hosts. As a DNS client, the switch resolves 
domain names to IP addresses through the use of one or more configured DNS 
servers.
This section describes how to define DNS servers and includes the following 
topics: 
• Configuring General DNS Settings
• Viewing Static and Dynamic DNS Servers
• Configuring Host Mapping
