        We *want* things like IPv6 stateless autoconfig to work. It's a great idea. We *want* a protocol simple enough that we don't have to deal with stateful DHCP, we *want* something that is hard to screw up.
You should be aware that this is by no means a universal viewpoint. IPv6 stateless autoconfig can be screwed up, DHCP can be screwed up. For my IPv6 networks I plan to stick with fixed IPv6 address or DHCP. Steinar Haug, Nethelp consulting, sthaug@nethelp.no
