HP ProCurve Series 6120 Blade Switches IPv6 Configuration Guide

IPv6 Addressing Configuration
Duplicate Address Detection (DAD)
If a previously configured unicast address is changed, a neighbor adver-
tisement is sent on the VLAN to notify other devices, and also for duplicate
address detection.
If DAD is disabled when an address is configured, the address is assumed
to be unique and is assigned to the interface.
