Re: [lwip-devel] dhcpv6 implementation if lwip stack

[ravi shanker]

Hi Ivan,

Well explained, I understood the point of prefix assignment from router.

Let me tell you about my network, its a collection of products that:

      1. receive the IP address from a centralized server (IP assignment to the products should be done from a centralize server)

      2. join a multicast group

      3. download streams from servers, multicasting to the groups

Here the first feature indicates me the necessity of the DHCPv6 server.

Without knowing too much about your address management policy, I'd still say your probably god to go with SLAAC. You can still control the prefix assigned through your router, but it's kind of the point of having IPv6 that you don't need to worry about managing address assignment. Your IPv6 router will make sure your devices get the right prefix and router/gateway information.

Cheers

Hi Ivan,

Thanks for the reply !!

My current requirement is, centralize management of assigned IP's in int
the IPv6 network. For the same, I think I have to go with the statefull
configuration (DHCPv6).
Please suggest on the same.
