IPv6 stateless configuration does not work

[aparikh]

Hi

I am trying to configure the Cisco 7603 as a IPv6 stateless DHCP server & 7204 as client. I am not sure what I am missing in the configuraton.

Following are the configuration from 7603:

interface GigabitEthernet3/1

no ip address

ipv6 address FE80::1 link-local

ipv6 enable

ipv6 nd other-config-flag

ipv6 dhcp server dhcp-pool rapid-commit

end

Cisco 7204

interface GigabitEthernet3/1

no ip address

ipv6 address DH-PREFIX 0:0:0:1::/64 eui-64

ipv6 address FE80::1 link-local

ipv6 enable

ipv6 nd other-config-flag

ipv6 dhcp server dhcp-pool rapid-commit

end

Thanks

You first need to change the following command on the client router:

ipv6 dhcp server dhcp-pool rapid-commit

to

ipv6 dhcp client pd DH-PREFIX rapid-commit

Did you configure your dhcp pool on the server side?

Also, I don't think you can dinamically get a prefix for gig3/1 since it is the interface on which you configured the "ipv6 dhcp client" command.

Hope this helps,

Hi,

I am using Stateless DHCP configuration. Following is my modified configuration. This configuration is from the Cisco Ipv6 Configuration guide.

1. I turned on the debug ipv6 dhcp command & I do not see any DHCP packet from Client or server.

2. How do you configure the server with the certain prefixes to advertised?

Thanks
