DHCPv6 can be used to statefully assign addresses if the network administrator needs more control over addressing. It can also be used to distribute information that is not otherwise discoverable; for example, the DNS server. (If you select DHCPv6, the IPv6 address and gateway boxes become unavailable.) • NDP-Select this option to use Neighbor Discovery Protocol for IPv6, as part of the Stateless Address Autoconfiguration protocol. (If you select NDP, the IPv6 address and gateway boxes become unavailable.) b. If you selected Static for IPv6 Discovery, enter a valid address in the IPv6 Address box.
