Enabling Stateful Autoconfiguration

You can set two fields in the router advertisement message to enable stateful autoconfiguration on a host: the managed configuration field and the other stateful configuration field. Setting the managed configuration field enables the host to use a stateful autoconfiguration protocol for address autoconfiguration, along with any stateless autoconfiguration already configured. Setting the other stateful configuration field enables autoconfiguration of other nonaddress-related information.

By default, stateful autoconfiguration is disabled.

To set the managed configuration field and enable address autoconfiguration, include the managed-configuration statement:

managed-configuration;

To disable managed configuration field, include the no-managed-configuration statement:

no-managed-configuration;

To set the other stateful configuration field and enable autoconfiguration of other types of information, include the other-stateful-configuration statement:

other-stateful-configuration;

To disable other stateful configuration, include the no-other-stateful-configuration statement:

no-other-stateful-configuration;

For a list of hierarchy levels at which you can configure these statements, see the statement summary sections for these statements.
