3.4.1.1 IPv6 WAN Connection Types
Static IPv6
Static IPv6 performs the same function as static IPv4. The static IPv6 provides manual setting of IPv6 address, IPv6 default
gateway address, and IPv6 DNS.

DHCPv6
DHCP in IPv6 performs the same function as DHCP in IPv4. The DHCP server sends an IP address, DNS server addresses and
other possible data to the DHCP client to configure it automatically. The server also sends a lease time of the address and
time to re-contact the server for IPv6 address renewal. The client must then resend a request to renew the IPv6 address.
