Implementing Cisco IP Routing (CCNP ROUTE, legacy) — Question 6

Which statement about stateless and stateful IPv6 autoconfiguration are true?

Answer options

• A. Both stateless and stateful autoconfiguration require additional setup
• B. Stateless autoconfiguration requires no additional setup, whereas stateful autoconfiguration requires additional setup
• C. Stateless autoconfiguration requires additional setup, whereas stateful autoconfiguration requires no additional setup
• D. Both stateless and stateful autoconfiguration require no additional setup B

Correct answer:

Explanation

The correct answer is B because stateless autoconfiguration operates without requiring additional setup, while stateful autoconfiguration does necessitate extra configuration for managing addresses. Options A and C are incorrect as they misrepresent the setup requirements of each type, and option D is also wrong since it states that no setup is needed for both types.
