Detailed explanation-1: -SLAAC is a stateless mechanism through which an IPv6 host can acquire its own unique IPv6 global unicast address.
Detailed explanation-2: -In this context stateless means that no server keeps track of what addresses have been assigned by which hosts and what addresses are still available for an assignment. A stateful DHCPv6 server provides IPv6 addresses and “other information” to hosts. It also keeps track of the state of each assignment.
Detailed explanation-3: -Stateless DHCPv6 is used by nodes to obtain other information, such as a DNS server list and a domain name, that does not require the maintenance of any dynamic state for individual nodes. A node that uses stateless DHCPv6 must have obtained its IPv6 addresses through some other mechanism usually SLAAC.
