Out of interest as I have found IPv6 RA to work flawlessly for my home network (alongside legacy IPv4 DHCP), what advantage (if any) is there in deploying DHCPv6 within the home LAN? Or were you meaning to say DHCPv6 is great for certain (enterprise?) use cases?
- hamandcheese 2y agoWhen I was experimenting with IPv6 on my lan, router advertisements indeed worked great! But the big loss was that I had no control to reserve a particular IPv6 address for a particular MAC address inside the DHCP server, or assign DNS names automatically, etc. since it's basically 1 way - device receives a RA then configures itself with a random address.
