Q

What is the role of the DHCPv6 Client?

Study These Flashcards
A

To acquire an IPv6 configuration from a DHCPv6 server

A DHCPv6 client requests addressing and configuration parameters.

22
Q

What is the significance of the prefix length in an IPv6 address?

Study These Flashcards
A

It indicates the number of bits used for the network portion of the address

The prefix length is essential for routing and subnetting.

23
Q

What does the command ‘ipv6 enable’ do on an interface?

Study These Flashcards
A

Enables IPv6 processing on that interface

This command is necessary to allow the interface to participate in IPv6 networking.

24
Q

What is the function of the DHCPv6 ADVERTISE message?

Study These Flashcards
A

To respond to a client’s SOLICIT message and provide available options

This message is part of the DHCPv6 communication process.

25
What does the command 'show ipv6 dhcp binding' display?
It shows the binding of IPv6 addresses assigned to clients by the DHCPv6 server ## Footnote This information is crucial for tracking address allocations.
26
Fill in the blank: The command to verify that the DHCPv6 relay agent is operational is _______.
show ipv6 dhcp interface ## Footnote This command checks the status of the DHCP relay agent's interface.
27
What is the purpose of Neighbor Advertisement (NA) messages?
To respond to Neighbor Solicitation messages and provide information about the sender ## Footnote NA messages are part of the Neighbor Discovery Protocol in IPv6.
28
What are the main objectives of the module on SLAAC and DHCPv6?
Configure dynamic address allocation in IPv6 networks ## Footnote The objectives include explaining how an IPv6 host can acquire its IPv6 configuration through SLAAC and DHCPv6.
29
What does SLAAC stand for?
Stateless Address Autoconfiguration ## Footnote SLAAC enables hosts to create their own unique IPv6 global unicast address without needing a DHCPv6 server.
30
What is the function of a DHCPv6 relay agent?
To forward DHCPv6 messages between clients and a DHCPv6 server on a different network ## Footnote The relay agent configuration is similar to that of an IPv4 router as a DHCPv4 relay.
31
What command is used to verify the operational status of a DHCPv6 relay agent?
show ipv6 dhcp interface ## Footnote This command allows you to check the status of the DHCPv6 relay agent.
32
What are the three flags included in an ICMPv6 Router Advertisement (RA) message?
A flag, O flag, M flag ## Footnote These flags inform the host of the dynamic options available for IPv6 address configuration.
33
What does the A flag in an RA message signify?
Use Stateless Address Autoconfiguration (SLAAC) to create an IPv6 GUA ## Footnote This flag indicates that the host can create its own IPv6 address.
34
What is the purpose of the O flag in an RA message?
Indicates that additional information is available from a stateless DHCPv6 server ## Footnote This allows the host to seek further configuration parameters.
35
What does the M flag in an RA message signify?
Use a stateful DHCPv6 server to obtain an IPv6 GUA ## Footnote This flag tells the host to rely on a DHCPv6 server for address assignment.
36
True or False: Stateful DHCPv6 requires SLAAC.
False ## Footnote Stateful DHCPv6 does not depend on SLAAC; it can operate independently.
37
What message does a host send to request an RA when using SLAAC?
Router Solicitation (RS) message ## Footnote This message is sent to the IPv6 all-routers multicast address of ff02::2.
38
What does a host do after receiving a Router Advertisement (RA) message?
It creates a unique IPv6 GUA using the provided network prefix ## Footnote The host uses the information in the RA to configure its IPv6 address.
39
Fill in the blank: The DHCPv6 server does not maintain a list of _______.
IPv6 address bindings ## Footnote This characteristic defines the stateless nature of DHCPv6.
40
What is the purpose of Duplicate Address Detection (DAD) in SLAAC?
To ensure that the IPv6 GUA is unique ## Footnote DAD uses an ICMPv6 Neighbor Solicitation (NS) message to check for address conflicts.
41
What is the default multicast address for all IPv6 routers?
ff02::2 ## Footnote This address is used by hosts to send RS messages to request RAs.
42
What command is used to manually configure an IPv6 global unicast address on a router?
ipv6 address ipv6-address/prefix-length interface configuration command ## Footnote This command is essential for setting up IPv6 addresses on router interfaces.
43
How often does a router send ICMPv6 RA messages by default?
Every 200 seconds ## Footnote Routers send RA messages periodically to assist hosts in autoconfiguring their IPv6 addresses.
44
What is the role of a Stateless DHCPv6 server?
To provide configuration parameters without maintaining address bindings ## Footnote It is used in conjunction with SLAAC to give additional information.
45
What is the significance of the link-local address in IPv6?
It is automatically created by the host when it boots and the interface is active ## Footnote The link-local address is used for local communication within the same network segment.
46
What is the IPv6 address format for a link-local address?
fe80::/10 ## Footnote Link-local addresses begin with the prefix fe80::.
47
How can a Windows host dynamically acquire an IPv6 GUA?
Through SLAAC or DHCPv6 ## Footnote Most Windows hosts are configured to dynamically obtain IPv6 addresses.
48
What does the command 'ipconfig /all' do?
Displays all IPv6 addressing information for Windows hosts ## Footnote This command helps verify what IPv6 configurations have been assigned.
49
What does the term 'Global Unicast Address (GUA)' refer to?
An IPv6 address that is globally routable and unique ## Footnote GUAs are essential for communication across the internet.
50
What is the purpose of the 'show ipv6 interface' command?
To verify that a router has joined the IPv6 all-routers group ## Footnote This command checks the router's participation in the multicast group.
51
What is the primary function of the DHCPv6 server?
To assign IPv6 addresses and provide configuration parameters to clients ## Footnote DHCPv6 can operate in both stateful and stateless modes.
52
What happens if a host receives a Neighbor Advertisement (NA) message during DAD?
The address is not unique, and the host must generate a new interface ID ## Footnote This process ensures that each address used on the network is unique.
