DHCPv6 relay agent options

The DHCPv6 relay agent inserts Options 18 and 37 before forwarding DHCPv6 packets to the server. These DHCPv6 options are enabled by default and are not configurable.

Interface ID (Option 18)

Interface on which the client-originated message is received.

The interface-ID is 12 bytes long and is constructed using three ifindexes: Logical, Received, and Physical. Each of the ifindex is 4 bytes long.

Remote ID (Option 37)
Identifies the host from which the message is received.
The default values of the Options 18 and 37 are as follows:
  • Default Agent Interface ID is constructed in the format VLANID:LagID:SlotID:PortStr. When the port is fanned-out, the PortStr is represented as mainPort:subPort (all in ASCII format).
  • Default Agent Remote ID is the system MAC address of the relay agent that adds Option 37 (in binary format).
