Whether the DHCP server is the only one DHCP server for the network:
after-10sec-delay - to clients request for an address, dhcp server will wait 10 seconds and if there is another request from the client after this period of time, then dhcp server will offer the address to the client or will send DHCPNAK, if the requested address is not available from this server
after-2sec-delay - to clients request for an address, dhcp server will wait 2 seconds and if there is another request from the client after this period of time, then dhcp server will offer the address to the client or will send DHCPNAK, if the requested address is not available from this server
yes - to clients request for an address that is not available from this server, dhcp server will send negative acknowledgment (DHCPNAK)
no - dhcp server ignores clients requests for addresses that are not available from this server
delay-threshold (time | none; Default: none)
If secs field in DHCP packet is smaller than delay-threshold, then this packet is ignored. If set to none - there is no threshold (all DHCP packets are processed)
disabled (yes | no; Default: no)
Whether DHCPv6 server participate in prefix assignment process.
lease-time (time; Default: 3d)
The time that a client may use the assigned address. The client will try to renew this address after a half of this time and will request a new address after time limit expires.
IPv6 pool, from which to take IPv6 prefix for the clients. If set to static-only, then only the clients that have a static binding (added in bindings submenu) will be allowed.
interface (string; Default: )
Interface on which server will be running.
name (string; Default: )
Reference name
Read-only Properties
Property
Description
dynamic (yes | no)
invalid (yes | no)
Bindings
Sub-menu:/ipv6 dhcp-server binding
DUID is used only for dynamic bindings, so if it changes then client will receive different prefix than previously.
Property
Description
address (IPv6 prefix; Default: )
IPv6 prefix that will be assigned to the client
comment (string; Default: )
Short description of an item.
disabled (yes | no; Default: no)
Whether item is disabled
life-time (time; Default: 3d)
Time period after which binding expires/
duid (string; Default: )
iaid (integer [0..4294967295]; Default: )
server (string | all; Default: all)
Name of the server. If set to all, then binding applies to all created DHCPv6 servers.
Read-only properties
Property
Description
dynamic (yes | no)
Whether item is dynamically created.
expires-after (time)
Time period after which binding expires.
last-seen (time)
Time period since client was last seen.
status (waiting | offered | bound)
Three status vales are possible:
waiting - Shown for static bindings if it is not used. For dynamic bindings this status is shown if it was used previously, server will wait 10 minutes to allow old client to get this binding, otherwise binding will be cleared and prefix willbe offered to other clients.
offered - if solicit message was received, and server responded with advertise message, but request was not received. During this state client have 2 minutes to get this binding, otherwise it is freed or changed status to waiting for static bindings.
bound - currently bound.
For example, dynamically assigned /62 prefix
[admin@RB493G] /ipv6 dhcp-server binding> print detail
