METHOD OF AUTOMATICALLY REGISTERING IP ADDRESS AND DOMAIN NAME FOR IPV6 PROTOCOL

摘要

PURPOSE: A method of automatically registering an IP address and a domain name for an IPv6(IP version 6) protocol is provided to automatically register an IP address and a domain name in a DNS server or other hosts if a host which uses the duplicated IP address or the domain name does not exist in a network, thereby automatically storing/managing IPv6 addresses and domain names of each host without duplication. CONSTITUTION: An IPv6 host is turned on(201), and a DAD(Duplicate Address Detection) process is performed(202). The host multicasts an NS(Neighbor Solicitation) message to transmit the NS message(203), and decides whether a DNS server exists(204). If so, the NS message is received through the DNS server(205). The DNS server decides whether a host uses an IP address and a domain name duplicated with an IP address or a domain name of a host transmitted by the NS message(207). If not, the DNS server stores a link local address and the domain name(208), and generates a site local address or a global address(210). The DNS server registers the generated address and the domain name(211), and completes the DAD process(212).
