STD 102 RFC 9915 Title: Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol for IPv6 (DHCPv6) Author: T. Mrugalski, B. Volz, M. Richardson, S. Jiang, T. Winters Status: Standards Track Stream: IETF Date: January 2026 Mailbox: [email protected], [email protected], [email protected], [email protected], [email protected] Pages: 115 Obsoletes: RFC 8415 See Also: STD 102 I-D Tag: draft-ietf-dhc-rfc8415bis-12.txt URL: https://www.rfc-editor.org/info/rfc9915 DOI: 10.17487/RFC9915 This document specifies the Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol for IPv6 (DHCPv6), an extensible mechanism for configuring nodes with network configuration parameters, IP addresses, and prefixes. Parameters can be provided statelessly or in combination with stateful assignment of one or more IPv6 addresses and/or IPv6 prefixes. DHCPv6 can operate either in place of or in addition to stateless address autoconfiguration (SLAAC). This document obsoletes RFC 8415. It incorporates verified errata and obsoletes the assignment of temporary addresses (the IA_TA option) and the server unicast capability (the Server Unicast option and UseMulticast status code). This document is a product of the Dynamic Host Configuration Working Group = of the IETF. This is now an Internet Standard. STANDARDS TRACK: This document specifies an Internet Standards Track protocol for the Internet community, and requests discussion and suggestion= s for improvements.
