OK. Just one thing to note. Auto-Configuration, also known as stateless, will only work if the router is configured to supply "router advertisements" FWIW, I do think a network can have both. Just not sure if a client can define both. I would be concerned with inconsistent addresses being assigned. I've just not been able to test it since I only have one router on my system and it can only be configured for "stateless" or "stateful (dhcp)" operation. -- If simple questions can be answered with a simple google query then why are there so many of them?
