Understanding DHCPv6:
DHCPv6 (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol for IPv6) is used to assign configuration parameters to IPv6 clients.
It supports both stateful and stateless modes:
Stateful: Assigns IPv6 addresses and other configuration parameters.
Stateless: Assigns only configuration parameters (e.g., DNS server) without providing IPv6 addresses.
HCIP-Datacom-Core Technology Training Material (IPv6 Address Configuration and DHCPv6).
Analysis of Parameters:
A. Gateway address:
False. DHCPv6 does not assign the default gateway. Instead, the default gateway is advertised by routers using Router Advertisement (RA) messages in IPv6.
B. DNS server address:
True. DHCPv6 can assign the IPv6 address of DNS servers to the client.
C. IPv6 address/prefix:
True. In stateful mode, DHCPv6 assigns IPv6 addresses and prefixes to clients.
D. SNTP server address:
True. DHCPv6 can assign the address of an SNTP (Simple Network Time Protocol) server to synchronize time on the client.
[Reference: HCIP-Datacom-Core Technology Training Material (DHCPv6 Configuration and Features)., Conclusion:, The correct parameters that a DHCPv6 server can assign to a client are: B. DNS server address, C. IPv6 address/prefix, D. SNTP server address., , , , ]
