This document specifies 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 obsoletes RFC 8415. It incorporates verified errata and
obsoletes the assignment of temporary addresses (the IA_TA option)
and the server unicast capability (the Server Unicast option and
UseMulticast status code).
This document is a product of the Dynamic Host Configuration Working Group of
the IETF.
This is now an Internet Standard.
STANDARDS TRACK: This document specifies an Internet Standards Track
