Configuring DHCPv6 (IA_PD) Prefix Allocation
This section describes how to configure the NetEngine 8000 F to allocate prefixes to a CPE when the CPE works in unnumbered routing mode. The CPE allocates the prefixes to the attached host for the host to generate IPv6 addresses.
Usage Scenario
In DHCPv6 prefix allocation, the IA_PD option is used to carry IA prefixes.
Figure 1 Networking diagram of IA_PD prefix allocation
The CPE initiates a connection request, and the NetEngine 8000 F uses DHCPv6 (IA_PD) to allocate prefixes to the CPE and the CPE allocates the prefixes to the attached host for the host to generate IPv6 addresses.
- Configuring the NetEngine 8000 F Based on Its Role
- This section describes how to configure the NetEngine 8000 F based on its role.
- Verifying the DHCPv6 (IA_PD) Prefix Allocation Configuration
- After configuring DHCPv6 (IA_PD) prefix allocation, verify the IPv6 address pool, IPv6 prefix pool, and domain configurations and the usage of the address pool bound to the domain.
