dhcp6s - DHCPv6 server daemon
SYNOPSIS
dhcp6s [ -vf ] [ -c <pathspec> ] [ -p <pathspec> ] <interface>
DESCRIPTION
dhcp6s is an implementation of the DHCPv6 server.
dhcp6s provides IPv6 addresses and prefix assginment administrative policy and configuration information for DHCPv6 clients. dhcp6s also
manages those addresses and prefixes, such as IPv6 addresses, prefixes, DNS server addresses, or ntp server addresses.
Interface names are specified according to your operating system's conventions. On Linux, this is typically eth0, eth1, and so on.
OPTIONS -c pathspec
Specifies the dhcp6s configuration file.
-p pathspec
Specifies the dhcp6s PID file.
-v Enables dhcp6s to print verbose debugging messages.
-f Enables dhcp6s to work as a foreground application. This option is helpful for debugging.
