DHCPv6 and stateless configuration are pretty much still very messy right now. yes, DHCPv6 would be a direct replacement for clients on the v6 landscape but not many clients support it.... worse, stateless configuration, whilst in a way elegant, hardly anything gets handed over to it....eg DNS or NTP information . theres also no way to hand over any encrpytion or seed things eg for SeND - we've been in chats with people about getting some nice extensions into the stateless RFC - it'd be good/useful to have these things sorted. ..now...what are those IPv6 youtube addresses, I've got an hour to burn ;-) alan _______________________________________________ cisco-nsp mailing list [email protected] https://puck.nether.net/mailman/listinfo/cisco-nsp archive at http://puck.nether.net/pipermail/cisco-nsp/
