FYI.  Has anyone looked at this?  From the Introduction:

   1.  Introduction

   The Delegated-IPv6-Prefix is a RADIUS attribute [1] that carries an
   IPv6 prefix to be delegated to the user.  For example, the prefix in
   a Delegated-IPv6-Prefix attribute can be delegated to another node
   through DHCP Prefix Delegation [2].

I infer from this that the intent is for a DHCPv6 server to get a prefix from an Radius/Diameter authentication check it will later delegate to the user. This seems OK to me, but it would also seem to provide for another general way to delegate IPv6 prefixes. I think that the draft needs more explination on it's intended usage. Or is this an IPv6 version of something that exists in IPv4?

Comments?

Bob
