ICX DHCPv6 Server?

lms_technology — Tue, 29 May 2018 19:34:37 GMT

Is support planned for DHCPv6 server in the ICX line? The ability to run DHCPv6 on the switch to hand out options is quite valuable, especially in a SLAAC environment.

I'm configuring some ICX 7650 switches to replace a Catalyst 3750-X stack and am disappointed that I can't supply IPv6 DNS and NTP server information from a built-in DHCP server as I could on the Cisco boxes.

Hi Dan, DHCPv6 on ICX is planned for a software release at the end of 2018.
