Configuring IPv6 prefix assignment

Use the following methods to configure IPv6 prefix assignment:

• Configure a static IPv6 prefix binding in an address pool—If you bind a DUID and an IAID to an IPv6 prefix, the DUID and IAID in a request must match those in the binding before the DHCPv6 server can assign the IPv6 prefix to the DHCPv6 client. If you only bind a DUID to an IPv6 prefix, the DUID in the request must match the DUID in the binding before the DHCPv6 server can assign the IPv6 prefix to the DHCPv6 client.

• Apply a prefix pool to an address pool—The DHCPv6 server dynamically assigns an IPv6 prefix from the prefix pool in the address pool to a DHCPv6 client.
