Alain is correct - the machinery in a host and a router
to exchange DHCPv6 Information-request/Reply messages is
nowhere as complex as a full DHCPv6 implementation.

We can demonstrate "DHCPv6-lite" in Cisco routers (in IOS).
It was developed as a a samll part of a part-time project
to implement DHCPv6 prefix delegation by three of
us at Cisco (Ole Troan, Jun Xie and myself).
