Remote DHCPv6 Autoconfiguration

Tomek Mrugalski · 2010

This document describes remote autoconfiguration, using DHCPv6 protocol. Every time a node attaches to a new link, it must renew or obtain new address and parameters, using DHCPv6 protocol. In case of mobile nodes, it is beneficial to obtain address and other configuration parameters remotely, before actually attaching to destination link. This document defines new options required to remotely discover destination DHCPv6 servers. Remote unicast configuration with DHCPv6 servers is also defined.
