Which mechanism cannot be used to assign global IPv6 addresses to end devices?

stateless DHCPv6
stateful DHCPv6
stateless autoconfiguration
manual address configuration

Explanation: Stateless DHCPv6 (also known as DHCPv6 Lite) does not provide IPv6 address assignment. It is used strictly to provide additional configuration parameters—such as DNS server addresses, domain names, and NTP server information—to clients that have already obtained their IPv6 addresses through other means like SLAAC.
