Re: simple DHCPv6 config with /56-Prefix (Walter H.) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Message: 1 Date: Sun, 28 Aug 2022 19:52:36 +0200 From: "Walter H." <walte...@mathemainzel.info> To: dhcp-users@lists.isc.org Subject: Re: simple DHCPv6 config with /56-Prefix Message-ID: <89961c31-a584-9216-0967-992afa0fb...@mathemainzel.info> Content-Type: text/plain; charset="utf-8"; Format="flowed" On 27.08.2022 21:44, Simon wrote: > You can do that, you just need to configure your RAs to advertise the > single 2001:db8:0/56 prefix - and set the right flags to indicate to > clients that this is a managed network and they need to use DHCPv6 to > get addresses. > However, be aware that SLAAC won?t work (properly/at all) on a /56 prefix, > and Android does not support DHCPv6*, so Android devices won?t work on this > network setup. > > But also, you can advertise multiple /64 (or /63, or /62, or ...) prefixes > without the nodes needing to use the router to communicate.
