Fernando Wrt to the Cisco DHCPv6 server (CNR): 1) sequential or random per configuration (can send multiple IA_NA/IA_TA if there are multiple prefixes configured for this link) 2) while client can send a 'hint' to re-use previous addresses, the server can do the same thing, we called this 'affinity', as well if using IA_NA (or course not applicable to IA_TA :-))
