LABEL DESCRIPTION
Server Status This section displays configuration settings related to the Switch’s DHCP server mode.
Index The Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol for IPv6 (DHCPv6, RFC 3315) is a server-client
protocol that allows a DHCP server to assign and pass IPv6 network addresses, prefixes
and other configuration information to DHCP clients. DHCPv6 servers and clients
exchange DHCP messages using UDP.
VID This is the index number of a DHCPv6 server information
DHCP Server This field displays the VLAN I D to which the DHCP server belongs.
Information This field displays Yes when the entry supports display of the refresh time and DNS
server; it shows No when it does not.
Prefix
Delegation
This field displays Yes when the entry supports the prefix delegation; it shows No when
it does not. The prefix delegation is used by an IPv6 device to generate its IP address.
DHCP Relay A DHCPv6 relay agent is on the same network as the DHCPv6 clients and helps forward
messages between the DHCPv6 server (that’s in another network) and the DHCPv6
clients.
This field displays Yes when the Switch supports DHCPv6 Relay and No when it does
not. Yes means the Switch forwards all DHCP requests to the same DHCP server. No
means the Switch does not forward DHCP requests to a DHCP server.
