DHCP6RELAY(8) System Manager's Manual DHCP6RELAY(8) NAME dhcp6relay -- DHCPv6 relay agent SYNOPSIS dhcp6relay [-Ddf] [-b boundaddr] [-H hoplim] [-r relay-IF] [-s serveraddr] [-S script-file] [-p pid-file] interface ... DESCRIPTION dhcp6relay acts as an intermediary to deliver DHCPv6 messages between clients and servers, and is on the same link as a client. dhcp6relay needs command line arguments interface ..., which specifies the list of links ac- commodating clients. Options supported by dhcp6relay are: -d Print debugging messages. -D Even more debugging information is printed. -f Foreground mode (useful when debugging). Although dhcp6relay usu- ally prints warning, debugging, or error messages to syslog(8), it prints the messages to standard error if this option is specified. -b boundaddr Specifies the source address to relay packets to servers (or other agents). -H hoplim Specifies the hop limit of DHCPv6 Solicit messages forwarded to servers. -r relay-IF Specifies the interface on which messages to servers are sent. When omitted, the same interface as interface will be used. When multiple interface are specified, this option cannot be omitted. -s serveraddr Specifies the DHCPv6 server address to relay packets to. If not specified, packets are relayed to ff05::1:3 (All DHCPv6 servers). -S script-file Specifies the script file to be executed when dhcp6relay receives a RELAY-REPLY message from a DHCPv6 server. Further detail of the script file syntax is available in dhcp6c(8) -p pid-file Use pid-file to dump the process ID of dhcp6relay. FILES /var/run/dhcp6relay.pid is the default file that contains pid of the cur- rently running dhcp6relay.
