Usage Guidelines

Usage Scenario

The nis-domain-name command is used on DHCPv6 servers. The DHCPv6 server specifies an NIS domain name suffix when allocating IPv6 addresses for clients. You can use the nis-domain-name command on the DHCPv6 server to specify a NIS domain name suffix for each global address pool. When allocating IPv6 addresses to clients, the DHCPv6 server also sends the NIS domain name suffix to the clients.

Precautions

A maximum of four different NIS domain names can be configured for an IPv6 address pool.

Example

# Configure the NIS domain name assigned to the DHCPv6 client as nis.com for the address pool pool1.
