To resolve this, a UDP helper address is established in the router configuration to forward broadcast network traffic outside the local subnet. If a DHCP client outside the DHCP server's subnet broadcasts an address request, it is the helper that forwards the message to the DHCP server. The server then chooses an address and sends the client a ...

This is a comparison of operating systems in regard to their support of the IPv6 protocol. Devices support DHCPv6 for clients but not for themselves. [5] Devices can only carry/pass through IPv6 on bridge, but not route. [6] RDNSS support with "rdnssd" and "resolvconf" or "openresolve" packages.
t. e. The Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol version 6 (DHCPv6) is a network protocol for configuring Internet Protocol version 6 (IPv6) hosts with IP addresses, IP prefixes, default route, local segment MTU, and other configuration data required to operate in an IPv6 network. It is not just the IPv6 equivalent of the Dynamic Host ...
Web Proxy Auto-Discovery Protocol. The Web Proxy Auto-Discovery (WPAD) Protocol is a method used by clients to locate the URL of a configuration file using DHCP and/or DNS discovery methods. Once detection and download of the configuration file is complete, it can be executed to determine the proxy for a specified URL.
