Wasn’t aware of that need. One way to make this happen would be for the CPE to reset its DUID. But it’s no longer smooth renumbering, the prefix will simply change. In this case however, this is a user-triggered action, so immediate renumbering might be acceptable. Support for RFC7084 L-13 would be desirable. > How does it "get" PD2?

The home gateway > doesn't actually have to ask for it, you can just send it a bunch of prefixes? You just configure it in the DHCPv6 server, usually through a script. Same for changing lease lifetime values. Ops people do this on a regular basis.
