I disagree with this wording. In particular, the Solicit/...
exchange is *not* limites to address configuration. The
Information-Request/Reply message exchange is not
"Stateful DHCPv6". "the DHCPv6 Server" might be misleading
as there can be more than one DHCPv6 server.
I don't think the purpose of the exchanges need to be
mentioned. I think the following would suffice:
M = ON means configuration information is available from a DHCPv6 service
through Solicit/Advertise/Request/Reply or Solicit/Reply (if Rapid Commit is
enabled) message exchanges.
O = ON means configuration information is available from a DHCPv6 service
through Information-request /Reply message exchanges.

assignment of any IPv6 addresses) is learned from the DHCPv6 Server
via Information-request /Reply message exchanges which is assumed to
be Stateless DHCPv6 and Stateful DHCPv6 or either.
Let me know if you have any comments. If no objection, I will add
this text into the M/O flag document as well.
Thanks.
