RE: Results: Straw poll: autoconf vs manual conf

["DE JUAN HUARTE FEDERICO" <Federico.De_Juan_Huarte at alcatel-lucent.fr>]

Hi,

I apologize for abusing of this thread but I'm looking for a simple answer (if such thing is possible)
If a network administrator decides to set the M bit meaning that it intends to always manage the address configuration, can he expect all hosts to support the DHCP functionality?

In other words, is DHCP a MUST implement for IPv6 hosts?

Regards

federico

Do you mean there will be router advertisements with M=1 and one or more prefix information options with A=0?
