There's an education here that unfortunately I don't have the time to give you. SLAAC is the replacement for DHCP, it provides a local prefix address (fe80::) and optionally (and, crucially: additionally) provides a publicly routable IP if there's a public prefix available. You can think of the subject being split into two components: As a base: You will get a local IP On top: you get DNS/Public routing.
