NAME
       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 con‐
       ventions.  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.

FILES
       /etc/dhcp6s.conf
	      Contains dhcp6s configurations, such  as	allow  unicast,	 allow
	      rapid-commit,  specify  valid-life-time,	or  specify preferred-
	      life-time.

       /var/lib/dhcpv6/dhcp6s_duid
	      Contains the dhcp6s server's DUID.

       /var/lib/dhcpv6/server6.leases
	      Contains all dhcp6c clients' IPv6	 address  and  prefix  leasing
	      information and states.
