Configuring Nontemporary Address Assignment
Nontemporary address assignment is also known as stateful address assignment. In the stateful address assignment mode, the DHCPv6 client requests global addresses from the DHCPv6 server. Based on the DHCPv6 server’s response, the DHCPv6 client assigns the global addresses to interfaces and sets a lease time for all valid responses. When the lease time expires, the DHCPv6 client renews the lease from the DHCPv6 server.
To configure nontemporary (stateful) address assignment:
- Specify the DHCPv6 client interface.[edit]user@host# set interfaces ge-0/0/0 unit 0 family inet6 dhcpv6-client
- Configure the client type as statefull.[edit interfaces ge-0/0/0 unit 0 family inet6 dhcpv6-client]user@host# set client-type statefull
- Specify the IA_NA assignment.[edit interfaces ge-0/0/0 unit 0 family inet6 dhcpv6-client]user@host# set client-ia-type ia-na
