NAME

       kea-dhcp6 - DHCPv6 server in Kea

SYNOPSIS

       kea-dhcp6  [-v]  [-V]  [-W] [-d] [-c config-file] [-t config-file] [-p server-port-number]
       [-P client-port-number]

DESCRIPTION

       The kea-dhcp6 daemon provides the DHCPv6 server implementation.

ARGUMENTS

       The arguments are as follows:

       -v     Displays the version.

       -V     Displays the extended version.

       -W     Displays the configuration report.

       -d     Enables the debug mode with extra verbosity.

       -c config-file
              Specifies the configuration file with the configuration for the DHCPv6  server.  It
              may also contain configuration entries for other Kea services.

       -t config-file
              Checks  the  configuration  file and reports the first error, if any. Note that not
              all parameters are completely checked; in particular, service and  control  channel
              sockets are not opened, and hook libraries are not loaded.

       -p server-port-number
              Specifies  the  server  port  number (1-65535) on which the server listens. This is
              useful for testing purposes only.

       -P client-port-number
              Specifies the client port number (1-65535) to which the server  responds.  This  is
              useful for testing purposes only.

DOCUMENTATION

       Kea  comes with an extensive Kea Administrator Reference Manual that covers all aspects of
       running  the  Kea  software  -  compilation,  installation,  configuration,  configuration
       examples, and much more. Kea also features a Kea Messages Manual, which lists all possible
       messages Kea can print with a brief description for  each  of  them.  Both  documents  are
       available  in  various  formats  (.txt,  .html,  .pdf)  with the Kea distribution. The Kea
       documentation is available at https://kea.readthedocs.io.

       Kea  source  code  is  documented   in   the   Kea   Developer's   Guide,   available   at
       https://reports.kea.isc.org/dev_guide/.

       The Kea project website is available at https://kea.isc.org.

MAILING LISTS AND SUPPORT

       There  are two public mailing lists available for the Kea project. kea-users (kea-users at
       lists.isc.org) is intended for Kea users, while  kea-dev  (kea-dev  at  lists.isc.org)  is
       intended  for  Kea  developers,  prospective  contributors, and other advanced users. Both
       lists are available at https://lists.isc.org. The community provides  best-effort  support
       on both of those lists.

       ISC  provides  professional  support  for  Kea  services. See https://www.isc.org/kea/ for
       details.

HISTORY

       The b10-dhcp6 daemon was first coded in June 2011 by Tomek Mrugalski.

       In mid-2014, Kea was decoupled from the BIND 10 framework and  became  a  standalone  DHCP
       server.  The  DHCPv6  server  binary  was  renamed to kea-dhcp6. Kea 1.0.0 was released in
       December 2015.
