Stateful and stateless address autoconfiguration can be combined by using a DHCP server to provide the stateless side of the address autoconfiguration, while using stateful autoconfiguration for the assignment of addresses. The DHCP server can be configured to provide the stateless side of autoconfiguration, such as the default gateway, DNS server, and other related information, while stateful autoconfiguration can then be used to assign IP addresses to specific clients. This allows the network administrator to have more control over the assignment of IP addresses, while still providing the benefits of stateless address autoconfiguration.
