Question

When a windows computer starts, it initiates the stateless address autoconfiguration process, during which it assigns each interface a link-local unicast address. what is the order of steps involved in this autoconfiguration process?

Answer 1

1) The IPv6 implementation on the system construct a link-local address for
     each interface by using the fe80::/64 network address
2)  Using IPv6 Neighbor Discovery protocol, the system check if the
     address is a duplicate 
3) Knowing the link-local address is unique, it configures the interface to use
    that address
4) The system uses the Neighbor Discovery protocol to transmit Router
     Solicitation messages to the all routers multicast address 
5) The router on the link uses the ND protocol to relay Router
     Advertisement messages to the system 
6) By using the information it receives from the router, the system produce
    a routable address and configures the interface to use it
