Short answer - it depends. Quick thoughts: 1) SLAAC can suffice, assuming IPv4 is present to "cheat" off of for DNS/name resolution. Or if/when RFC5006 gets more widely supported. 2) Maybe, see next comment :). 3) DHCPv6 client and server support is not exactly 100% available on all platforms, atleast not natively (3rd party apps exist, e.g. - Dibbler). Many routers currently support stateless DHCPv6 server functionality only ... not stateful.
