Status Toggle to ON to enable DHCPv6.
Mode
The IPv6 DHCP server is either stateless or stateful. If stateless is selected an external IPv6 DHCP server is
not required as the IPv6 LAN hosts are auto-conīgured by this router. In this case the router advertisement
daemon (RADVD) must be conīgured on this device and ICMPv6 router discovery messages are used
by the host for auto-conīguration. There are no managed addresses to serve the LAN nodes. If stateful
is selected the IPv6 LAN host will rely on an external DHCPv6 server to provide required conīguration
settings.
Domain Name Enter a domain name (optional).
Server Preference

with the highest server preference value to a LAN host are preferred over other DHCP server advertise
messages. The default is 255.

conīguration parameter).
