A

The FA0/0 interface is missing the command that informs the clients to use stateful DHCPv6.

42
Q
  1. A network administrator is implementing DHCPv6 for the company. The administrator configures a router to send RA messages with M flag as 1 by using the interface command ipv6 nd managed-config-flag . What effect will this configuration have on the operation of the clients?
