Hi,

I was trying to configure DHCP for IPV6 on a Virtual PC Setup.

10.11.22.31 being DHCP server (ISC 4.2.2) and
client on 10.11.22.32 (dhclient which comes with ISC 4.2.2)

*Server is running on eth1*

[root at VPC-1 dhcp-4.2.2]# /root/dhcp-4.2.2/server/dhcpd -6 -d -cf
/etc/dhcpd.conf eth1
Here is the conf file

default-lease-time 600;
max-lease-time 7200;
log-facility local7;
subnet6 2002:2002::/48 {
        # Range for clients
        range6 2002:2002:: 2002:2002:ffff::;
        # Additional options
        option dhcp6.name-servers fec0:0:0:1::1;
        option dhcp6.domain-search "domain.example";
        # Prefix range for delegation to sub-routers
        #prefix6 fe80:5054:0:100:: fe80:5054:0:f00:: /56;
        # Example for a fixed host address
}
#        host specialclient {
#                host-identifier option dhcp6.client-id
00:01:00:01:4a:1f:ba:e3:60:b9:1f:01:23:45;
#                fixed-address6  fe80:5054:0:1::127;
#
