DHCPv6 relay agent

The DHCPv6 relay agent enhances the extended DHCP relay agent by providing DHCP support in an IPv6 network. DHCPv6 relay agents eliminate the necessity of having a DHCPv6 server on each physical network. An ACX Series router configured as a DHCPv6 relay agent passes messages between the DHCPv6 client and the DHCPv6 server, similar to the way a DHCP relay agent supports an IPv4 network. To configure the DHCPv6 relay agent, include the dhcpv6 statement at the [edit forwarding-options dhcp-relay] hierarchy level. You can also include the dhcpv6 statement at the [edit routing-instances routing-instance-name forwarding-options] hierarchy level.
