Configuring DHCPv6 (IA_NA) Address Allocation
This section describes how to configure the NetEngine 8000 F to use DHCPv6 (IA_NA) to allocate IPv6 addresses when the CPE works in bridging mode.
Usage Scenario
In DHCPv6 (IA_NA) address allocation mode, IA_NA options are used to carry IA addresses to be allocated.
Figure 1 Networking diagram of DHCPv6 (IA_NA) address allocation
The host initiates a connection request and the CPE transparently forwards the connection request packet. The NetEngine 8000 F uses DHCPv6 (IA_NA) to allocate IPv6 addresses to the host.
- Configuring the NetEngine 8000 F Based on Its Role
- This section describes how to configure the NetEngine 8000 F based on its role.
- Configuring the Address Assignment Status
- You can configure the address assignment status based on the address assignment mode and access mode.
- Verifying the DHCPv6 (IA_NA) Address Allocation Configuration
- After configuring DHCPv6 address allocation, verify the IPv6 address pool, IPv6 prefix pool, and domain configurations and the usage of the address pool bound to the domain.
