The R_DhcpCreateSubnetV6 method creates a new IPv6 prefix on the DHCPv6 server.

 DWORD R_DhcpCreateSubnetV6(
   [in, unique, string] DHCP_SRV_HANDLE ServerIpAddress,
   [in] DHCP_IPV6_ADDRESS SubnetAddress,
   [in, ref] LPDHCP_SUBNET_INFO_V6 SubnetInfo
 );

ServerIpAddress: The IP address/host name of the DHCP server. This parameter is unused.

SubnetAddress: A pointer of type DHCP_IPV6_ADDRESS (section 2.2.1.2.28) that contains the IPv6 address of the subnet.

SubnetInfo: A pointer to a structure of type DHCP_SUBNET_INFO_V6 (section 2.2.1.2.56) that contains information about the IPv6 prefix to be added to the DHCPv6 server. The Prefix field is not stored in the database; any value specified for this field does not alter the behavior of this method.

Return Values: A 32-bit unsigned integer value that indicates return status. A return value ERROR_SUCCESS (0x00000000) indicates that the operation was completed successfully, else it contains a Win32 error code, as specified in [MS-ERREF]. This error code value can correspond to a DHCP-specific failure, which takes a value between 20000 and 20099, or any generic failure.
