Ch 15 - IPV6 Internet Connectivity Flashcards
Stateless Address Autoconfiguration (SLAAC)
A method used by an IPv6 host to determine its own IP address, without DHCPv6, by using Neighbor Discovery Protocol (NDP) and the modified EUI-64 address format. See also stateful autoconfiguration.
stateless DHCPv6
A term used in IPv6 to contrast with stateful DHCP. Stateless DHCP servers don’t lease IPv6 addresses to clients. Instead, they supply other useful information,
such as DNS server IP addresses, but with no need to track information about the clients (state information).
stateful DHCPv6
A term used in IPv6 to contrast with stateless DHCP. Stateful DHCP keeps track of which clients have been assigned which IPv6 addresses (state information).
DHCPv6 Prefix Delegation (DHCPv6-PD)
A variant of Stateful DHCPv6, which allows a DHCPv6 server to assign a collection of IPv6 networks to a router (or other DHCPv6 client).
Multiprotocol BGP (MP-BGP)
An updated version of BGPv4 that includes omponents
supporting the routing of both IPv4 and IPv6 networks.
