CompTIA Network+ (N10-008) — Question 588

Which of the following services provides the network information for the address when IPv6 is used for SLAAC addressing?

Answer options

• A. EUI-64
• B. IPv6 unicast routing
• C. Router advertisement
• D. DHCPv6

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is C, Router advertisement, as it is responsible for providing the necessary network information for Stateless Address Autoconfiguration (SLAAC) in IPv6. Options A and B do not supply network information directly, while D, DHCPv6, is used for stateful address assignment rather than the SLAAC process.
