1. Enter system view.

3. Enable the DHCPv6 server on the interface.

By default, the interface discards DHCPv6 packets from DHCPv6 clients.

4. Configure an address/prefix assignment method.

• Configure global address assignment:
  ipv6 dhcp server { allow-hint | preference preference-value | rapid-commit } *

• Apply a DHCPv6 address pool to the interface:
  ipv6 dhcp server apply pool pool-name [ allow-hint | preference preference-value | rapid-commit ] *

By default, desired address/prefix assignment and rapid assignment are disabled, and the default preference is 0.
