DHCPv6 Relay
The Network Services > DHCP > DHCPv6 Relay tab allows you to configure a DHCP Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol relay for IPv6. The DHCP service is provided by a separate DHCPv6 interface and Sophos UTM works as a relay. The DHCPv6 relay can be used to forward DHCP requests and responses across network segments.
Note – You have to activate IPv6 on the Interfaces & Routing > IPv6 > Global tab to use DHCPv6 relay.
To configure a DHCPv6 relay, proceed as follows:
-
On the DHCPv6 Relay tab, enable DHCPv6 Relay.
Click the toggle switch.
The toggle switch turns amber and the DHCPv6 Relay Configuration area becomes editable.
-
Add the interfaces facing clients involved.
Add the interfaces to the clients' network(s) between which DHCPv6 requests and responses should be forwarded.
-
Add the interfaces facing servers involved.
Add the interfaces facing the DHCPv6 server.
-
Click Apply.
Your settings will be saved.
The switch turns green.
To cancel the configuration, click the amber colored toggle switch.
