Abstract:
The Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol for IPv6 (DHCPv6) enables
DHCPv6 servers to pass configuration parameters. It offers
configuration flexibility. If not secured, DHCPv6 is vulnerable to
various attacks, particularly spoofing attacks. This document
analyzes the security issues of DHCPv6 and specifies a Secure DHCPv6
mechanism for communication between DHCPv6 client and server. This
mechanism is based on public/private key pairs. The authority of the
sender may depend on either pre-configuration mechanism or Public Key
Infrastructure.
