capwap-ac (IPv6 address pool view)

Function

The capwap-ac command configures the AC's IPv6 address in the IPv6 address pool view.

The undo capwap-ac command deletes the AC's IPv6 address configured in the IPv6 address pool view.

By default, the AC's IPv6 address is not configured in the IPv6 address pool view.

Only the S5720-HI, S5730-HI, S5731-H, S5731S-H, S5732-H, S6720-HI, S6730S-H, and S6730-H support this command.

Usage Guidelines

Usage Scenario

In the AC+Fit AP scenario, the AC needs to establish connections with APs. The device functioning as a DHCPv6 server can specify the AC's IPv6 address for an AP. The AP then can connect to the specified AC. The device uses Option52 to carry the AC address.

If the AC and AP are located in the same network segment, the AP sends a broadcast packet to automatically discover the AC. In this case, the configuration of the capwap-ac command is optional. If the AC and AP are located in different network segments, you must configure the capwap-ac command.

Prerequisites

The IPv6 address pool is created using the dhcpv6 pool command.

Precautions

You can run the capwap-ac command multiple times to configure the IPv6 addresses of several ACs, and the AC's IPv6 address that is configured first takes precedence over the one configured later.

Example

# Specify the AC's IPv6 address to fc00:1::1 in pool1 of the DHCPv6 server.

<HUAWEI> system-view
[HUAWEI] dhcpv6 pool pool1
[HUAWEI-dhcpv6-pool-pool1] capwap-ac fc00:1::1
