A stateless DHCPv6 server (not handing out addresses) might be very light-weight, and it looks like at least some router vendors are about to offer this already. I believe it makes little difference whether the protocol is DHCPv6 or something else, and many hosts and routers will need some form of DHCPv6 support anyway to allow configuration of other parameters.
