   * A host can also send a **Router Solicitation** (RS) message requesting an RA.
   * SLAAC can be deployed as SLAAC only, or SLAAC with DHCPv6
+==== DHCPv6 ====
+Stateful DHCPv6 does not require SLAAC while stateless DHCPv6 does. Regardless, when an RA indicates to use DHCPv6 or stateful DHCPv6:
+  - The host sends an RS message.
+  - The router responds with an RA message.
+  - The host sends a DHCPv6 SOLICIT message.
+  - The DHCPv6 server responds with an ADVERTISE message.
+  - The host responds to the DHCPv6 server.
+  - The DHCPv6 server sends a REPLY message.
+=== Stateless DHCPv6 Operation ===
+If an RA indicates the stateless DHCPv6 method:
+  * the host uses the information in the RA message for addressing and contacts a DHCPv6 server for additional information.
+  * Note: The DHCPv6 server only provides configuration parameters for clients and does not maintain a list of IPv6 address bindings (i.e. stateless).
+=== Statefull DHCPv6 Operation ===
+If an RA indicates the statefull DHCPv6 method:
+  * the host contacts a DHCPv6 server for all configuration information.
+  * Note: The DHCPv6 server is statefull and maintains a list of IPv6 address bindings
