Project Overview
- Project Name: DHCPv6
- Student: Kavya Bhat
- Mentors: Tommaso Pecorella, Alberto Gallegos Ramonet, Manoj Kumar Rana
The project aimed to implement DHCP for IPv6 (DHCPv6), which is used in IPv6 networks for address configuration on devices, and allows for central management of the network. ns-3 has a model for DHCP but currently does not have an implementation for DHCPv6, and the goal is to add functionality for this protocol.
