After configuring both Address Manager and DNS/DHCP Server, you can now deploy DHCPv6 to a DNS/DHCP Server.

To deploy DHCPv6:

  1. Select the Servers tab in the sidebar, then select Servers.
  2. Select the checkbox for one or more servers.
  3. Select Actions > Deploy.
  4. Under Services, select the service to be deployed to the server: DHCPv6.
  5. In the Change control section, add comments if required.
  6. Select Deploy.
Verify that DHCPv6 has deployed properly by viewing one of the following files.
  • Syslog—you will see:
    Started dhcpv6d.service - DHCP V6 Service
  • DHCPv6 Configuration file—located in /replicated/etc/dhcp6s.conf. Look for an entry similar to:
    subnet6 2001:DB8::/64 {
    range6 2001:DB8::1 2001:DB8::400;
    }
  • DHCPv6 Leases—located in /var/state/dhcp/dhcp6.leases. Look for an entry similar to:
    ia-na ")\014\000\016\000\001\000\001\022\374=\247\000\014)\252\265\233" {

        max-life 43200;
        ends 1 2011/10/03 23:27:22;
      }
    }
