router responsible for DHCPv6 packet forwarding has DHCPv6 relay function. If

DHCPv6 relay is not available for the intermediate router, it is recommended to

replace the router or upgrade its software to one that has a DHCPv6 relay function;

Sometimes hosts are connected to the DHCPv6 enabled switches, but can not get

IPv6 addresses. In this situation, it should be checked first whether the ports which

the hosts are connected to, are connected with the port which the DHCPv6 server is

connected to. If connected directly, it should be checked then whether the IPv6

address pool of the VLAN which the port belongs to, is in the same subnet with the

address pool configure in the DHCPv6 server; If not connected directly, and any

layer three DHCPv6 relay is configured between the hosts and the DHCPv6 server, it

should be checked first whether an valid IPv6 address has been configured for the

switch interface which the hosts are connected to. If not configured, configure an

valid IPv6 address. If configured, it should be checked whether the configured IPv6

address is in the same subnet with the DHCPv6 server. If not, please add it to the

address pool.
