IPv6 Interface

◆ The ipv6 nd other-config-flag command is used to tell hosts that they
should use stateful autoconfiguration to get other non-address
parameters (such as DNS server addresses) from DHCPv6 servers.
◆ The absence of the “managed-address configuration” flag tells hosts to
use only stateless address autoconfiguration (based on IPv6 prefixes
found in router advertisements).
◆ The “managed address configuration” flag is only a suggestion to
attached hosts. They may still use stateful and/or stateless address
autoconfiguration. If hosts must be forced to use DHCPv6 for security
reasons, ensure that no route prefixes are sent in router
advertisements.
E XAMPLE
The following tells hosts to use stateful autoconfiguration to obtain
addresses:
Console(config)#interface vlan 1
Console(config)#ipv6 nd managed-config-flag
Console(config)#
ipv6 nd other-
config-flag
This command configures IPv6 router advertisements to indicate to
attached hosts that they can obtain stateful autoconfiguration information
other than addresses. Use the no form to clear this flag from router
advertisements.

◆ The “other-stateful-configuration” flag tells hosts that they should use
stateful autoconfiguration to obtain information other than addresses
from a DHCPv6 server.
◆ Some hosts interpret the “other stateful configuration” flag to indicate
that they should use stateless address autoconfiguration to get IPv6
address (based on the IPv6 prefixes found in router advertisements)
and stateful autoconfiguration to get other non-address parameters
from DHCPv6 servers. In this case, the absence of both the “managed
address configuration” flag and the “other stateful configuration” flag is
interpreted to mean that they should use only stateless
autoconfiguration to obtain addresses.
