Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol for IPv6 (DHCPv6) bis
draft-ietf-dhc-rfc3315bis-12
Abstract
This document describes the Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol for
IPv6 (DHCPv6): an extensible mechanism for configuring nodes 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 RFC3315, the original DHCPv6
specification, and incorporates prefix delegation (RFC3633),
stateless DHCPv6 (RFC3736), an option to specify an upper bound for
how long a client should wait before refreshing information
(RFC4242), a mechanism for throttling DHCPv6 clients when DHCPv6
service is not available (RFC7083), incorporates relay agent handling
of unknown messages (RFC7283), and clarifies the interactions between
modes of operation (RFC7550). As such, this document obsoletes
RFC3315, RFC3633, RFC3736, RFC4242, RFC7083, RFC7283, and RFC7550.
