Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol for IPv6 (DHCPv6) bis
draft-ietf-dhc-rfc3315bis-05
Abstract
This document describes the Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol for
IPv6 (DHCPv6): an extensible mechanism for configuring hosts with
network configuration parameters, IP addresses, and prefixes.
Parameters can be provided statelessly, or in combination with
stateful assignment of one or more IPv6 addresses and/or IPv6
prefixes. DHCPv6 can operate either in place of or in addition to
stateless address autoconfiguration (SLAAC).
This document updates the text from RFC 3315, the original DHCPv6
specification, and incorporates the stateless DHCPv6 extensions (RFC
3736) and prefix delegation (RFC 3633), clarifying the interactions
between these modes of operation (RFC 7550) and providing a mechanism
for throttling DHCPv6 clients when DHCPv6 service is not available
(RFC 7083). As such, this document obsoletes RFC3315, RFC3633,
RFC3736, RFC7083, RFC7550.
