A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories. This draft is a work item of the Dynamic Host Configuration Working Group of the IETF. Title : Prefix Assignment in DHCPv6 Author(s) : Sheng Jiang Frank Xia Behcet Sarikaya Filename : draft-ietf-dhc-host-gen-id-04.txt Pages : 11 Date : 2012-08-29 Abstract: This document introduces a generic host-oriented prefix assignment mechanism using DHCPv6. In this new address configuration procedure, the prefix is assigned from a DHCPv6 server to hosts through DHCPv6 message exchanging while the interface identifiers are independently generated by the hosts. It enables both integral address assignment and self-generated addresses in one single mechanism, DHCPv6. It also enables stateless address configuration without RA attendance.
