Step 2
ipv6 dhcp pool poolname
Step 3
address prefix IPv6-prefix lifetime {t1 t1 | infinite} (Optional) Specify an address prefix for address assignment.
Step 4
link-address IPv6-prefix
Step 5

Purpose
Enter global configuration mode.
Enter DHCP pool configuration mode, and define the name
for the IPv6 DHCP pool. The pool name can be a symbolic
string (such as Engineering) or an integer (such as 0).
This address must be in hexadecimal, using 16-bit values
between colons.
lifetime t1 t1—Specify a time interval (in seconds) that an
IPv6 address prefix remains in the valid state. The range is 5
to 4294967295 seconds. Specify infinite for no time interval.
(Optional) Specify a link-address IPv6 prefix.
When an address on the incoming interface or a link-address
in the packet matches the specified IPv6 prefix, the server
uses the configuration information pool.
This address must be in hexadecimal, using 16-bit values
between colons.
(Optional) Enter vendor-specific configuration mode and
enter a vendor-specific identification number. This number is
the vendor IANA Private Enterprise Number. The range is 1
to 4294967295.
(Optional) Enter a vendor-specific suboption number. The
range is 1 to 65535. Enter an IPv6 address, ASCII text, or a
hex string as defined by the suboption parameters.
Return to DHCP pool configuration mode.
Return to global configuration mode.
Enter interface configuration mode, and specify the interface
to configure.
