Dibbler - a portable DHCPv6(第三方的IPv6客户端)

DHCPv6: Dibbler - a portable DHCPv6

Dibbler is a portable DHCPv6 implementation. It supports stateful (i.e. IPv6 address granting and IPv6 prefix delegation) as well as stateless (i.e. option granting) autoconfiguration for IPv6. Currently Linux 2.4 or later and Windows XP or later are supported. It features easy to use install packages (Clickable Windows installer and RPM and DEB packages for Linux) and extensive documentation (both for users as well as developers). Dibbler is developed under GNU GPL licence. It means that it is free for all, including commercial usage.
This project was started in 2003 as master thesis by Tomasz Mrugalski and Marek Senderski of Computer Science faculty on Gdansk University of Technology. This project is named Dibbler (after famous CMOT Dibbler from fantastic Discworld series by Terry Pratchett). If you are interested in porting it to other systems/architectures, contact Tomasz Mrugalski for info and guidelines.
