zOSPF-based:
http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-ospf-ospfv3-autoconfig-00
http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-arkko-homenet-prefix-assignment-04

DHCP-based:
http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-grundemann-homenet-hipnet-01
http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-baker-homenet-prefix-assignment-01

See also
http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-homenet-arch-08#page-25

There are at least two interoperable implementations of the zOSPF solution 
using different platforms (bird and quagga)
