DHCPv6 vs. stateless address autoconfiguration
12 May 2009
ince my initiation into the world of IPv6 in 2004, it seemed that a religious war of address management was brewing. Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol for IPv6 (DHCPv6) and Stateless Address Autoconfiguration (RFC 4862) became an issue of security, address management and scalable nodal allocations. Really, what is the big issue? In this blog (and later blog entries) I want to try to address each issue’s pro/con and hopefully discuss any myths behind each of the issues of automatic address issuance.
