Parameters

ascii ascii-string: Specifies a case-sensitive ASCII string of 1 to 130 characters as the DHCPv6 client DUID.

hex hex-string: Specifies a hexadecimal number of 2 to 260 characters as the DHCPv6 client DUID.

mac interface-type interface-number: Specifies the MAC address of the specified interface as the DHCPv6 client DUID. The interface-type interface-number arguments specify an interface by its type and number.

Usage guidelines

A DHCPv6 client pads its DUID into the Option 1 of the DHCPv6 packet that it sends to the DHCPv6 server. The DHCPv6 server can assign specific IPv6 addresses or prefixes to DHCPv6 clients with specific DUIDs.

The DUID of a DHCPv6 client is the globally unique identifier of the client, so make sure the DUID that you configure is unique.

Examples

# Specify the hexadecimal number FFFFFFFF as the DHCPv6 client DUID for VLAN-interface 10.

<Sysname> system-view
[Sysname] interface vlan-interface 10
[Sysname-Vlan-interface10] ipv6 dhcp client duid hex ffffffff
