How does an IPv6 client ensure that it has a unique address after configuring its IPv6 address using SLAAC?
It sends an ARP message with the IPv6 address as the destination IPv6 address.

What are two characteristics of the SLAAC method for IPv6 address configuration? (Choose two.)
Clients send router advertisement messages to routers to request IPv6 addressing.
