Configuring a DHCPv6 Local Server for DHCPv6 over PPPoE

To layer DHCPv6 above the PPPoE IPv6 family (inet6), create a DHCPv6 local server and associate DHCPv6 with the PPPoE interfaces by adding the PPPoE interfaces to the DHCPv6 local server configuration. Specify static and dynamic PPPoE interfaces as follows:

  • Dynamic—Use the pp0.0 (PPPoE) logical interface as a wildcard to indicate that a DHCPv6 binding can be made on top of a PPPoE interface.
  • Static—Use unit numbers to explicitly specify static interfaces; for example, pp0.2000.

To configure a DHCPv6 local server:

  1. Access the DHCPv6 local server configuration.
    [edit]user@host# edit system services dhcp-local-server dhcpv6[edit system services dhcp-local-server dhcpv6]
  2. Create a group for dynamic PPPoE interfaces and assign a name.

    The group feature groups a set of interfaces and then applies a common DHCP configuration to the named interface group.

    [edit system services dhcp-local-server dhcpv6]user@host# edit group group-pppoe
  3. For dynamic PPPoE logical interfaces, add an interface.
    [edit system services dhcp-local-server dhcpv6 group group-pppoe]user@host# set interface pp0.0
  4. For static PPPoE, add a range of interfaces.
    [edit system services dhcp-local-server dhcpv6 group group-pppoe]user@host# set interface pp0.2000 upto pp0.2999
