Multicast addresses used by DHCPv6

DHCPv6 uses the multicast address FF05::1:3 to identify all site-local DHCPv6 servers, and uses the

multicast address FF02::1:2 to identify all link-local DHCPv6 servers and relay agents.

DUID

A DHCP unique identifier (DUID) uniquely identifies a DHCPv6 device (DHCPv6 client, server, or relay

agent). A DHCPv6 device adds its DUID in a sent packet.

Figure 55 DUID-LL format

The device supports the DUID format based on link-layer address (DUID-LL) defined in RFC 3315.

shows the DUID-LL format, where:

DUID type—The device supports the DUID type of DUID-LL with the value of 0x0003.

Hardware type—The device supports the hardware type of Ethernet with the value of 0x0001.

Link layer address—Takes the value of the bridge MAC address of the device.

IA

Identified by an IAID, an identity association (IA) provides a construct through which a client manages

the obtained addresses, prefixes, and other configuration parameters. A client can have multiple IAs, for

example, one for each of its interfaces.

IAID

An IAID uniquely identifies an IA. It is chosen by the client and must be unique on the client.
