Hi Ralph,
I was just commenting that the addressing policy changes triggered by
routing changes are best initiated by the router and all the other
policy changes are best initiated by the DHCP server. I was not
commenting on the suitability/ease of use of the delivery mechanism(s)
at all.

OK.
I'll agree that the information about routing changes is available in the
router. Whether the router has all the information needed and the
mechanisms to translate that routing information into policy changes for the
My point is that place with better information and best place from
which to deliver information to the host are not necessarily
(although likely to be) the same...

They don't actually need a full DHCPv6 server. Support of Information-
request/Reply/Reconfigure would be sufficient.

In the discussion of IPv6 address selection , Dave Thaler asked me to
comment on this bullet from slide 10:
* DHCP option
- Hard to kick policy reconfigure by a server.
Not wanting to contribute to yet another iteration of the RA-vs-DHCP

DHCPv6 Reconfigure can be secured using an additional Reconfigure
Key that does not require a shared secret or other pre-
