With this said, I'd like to propose something toward Remi. You will be wanting some way for CPE devices to discover the ISP's 6rd-relays IPv6 prefix. This can be easily accommodated by defining a new DHCPv6 option (the "6rd Prefix Option"?) for which the sole purpose is to convey a prefix and prefix length.
There is indeed a need.Note that it should rather be a *DHCPv4* option, since it is needed before there is IPv6 connectivity.
As mentioned in another email, and as far as I know, Mark Townsley is working on it.
I believe it should be quickly agreed on, to expand applicability of a useful tool for rapid deployment of native IPv6.
