NAME

       dhcpv6db2conf - DHCPv6 client database converter

SYNOPSIS

       [lan_interfaces]

DESCRIPTION

       provides  a means of translating the DHCPv6 client database, into a set of standard configuration file variables.  The client database con-
       sists of a series of records.  Each record represents a unique lan interface and a list of attributes, which correspond to that	interface.
       The  attributes are configuration parameters like: host's IP address, NTP server address, address of the DHCPv6 server, NIS domain name etc
       for that interface.  With you can list the contents of the database to the screen, create a set of configuration staging files, or  execute
       direct edits on existing configuration files using the values contained in the client database.

   Options
       allows  you  to	specify a list of lan interfaces on the command line (e.g.  whose data needs to be translated to a readable format.  If no
       lan interface is specified, will process the entries of all interfaces which are UP.  The attributes can  be  selected  for  processing	by
       specifying  a combination of one or more filter flags on the command line.  If no filter flag is specified, all the attributes for that lan
       interface will be processed.

       The following options are supported:

       Using the results of the specified filter, directly apply the variable
		      definitions to the existing configuration files (for example,

       Create a set of staging files using the results of the selected filter(s).
		      Each variable processed will be applied to its corresponding staging configuration file.

		      Specifically, will generate a copy of the existing configuration file.  For example, will be copied  to  Once  this  staging
		      file has been created, the variable that is being processed will be applied to this newly created file.

       Print results to the screen (stdout), this is the default action if neither
		      nor are specified.

       Process the    INTERFACE variable set [IPV6_SECONDARY_INTERFACE_NAME, IPV6_ADDRESS, IPV6_PREFIXLEN, DHCPV6_ENABLE].

       Process the DNS variable set
		      [domain, nameserver].

       Process the SIP server address and SIP domain name information.

       Process the NIS variable set
		      [NIS_DOMAIN, YPSET_ADDR].

       Process the vendor specific information.

       Print the DHCPv6 server address.

       lan_interfaces lan  interfaces  such as whose data needs to be translated to a readable format.	If not specified, will process the entries
		      of all interfaces which are UP.

   Configuration Files and Variable Names
       The following files and variables can be processed:

					    IPV6_SECONDARY_INTERFACE_NAME
			     IPV6_ADDRESS
			     IPV6_PREFIXLEN
