The only reference to IPv6 is "IPv6 Gold"
Does that mean that it does PD?
It does not.
I don't know and I'm not about
to wade through the 135 page test spec for DHCPv6 to find out.
Does it do DHCPv6 client / server.
It has both dhcpv6 client and server. it makes the assumuption that if
you want to assign v6 nameservers that you'll do so with stateful dhcpv6.
the product is closing in on a year old so I imagine the product
managers fixed the feature set in stone rather a long while ago.
But the basic principle for me is that I have to put no effort into
this changeover at all as a network admin. Its got to be no more than
a replacement of one gateway box with another.
Expecting more is futile as the power users are not going to be early
adopters for single stack IPv6. We are the ones who are going to want
IPv4 connectivity the longest. The target market for IPv6 has to be
the less demanding users for whom a full IPv6 connection and a NAT-ed
IPv4 are going to serve perfectly well.
I am not going to tell any of my friends or family to move to IPv6
unless it is absolutely guaranteed to be painless. Otherwise I am
going to be the one doing long distance tech support.
