HNCP just doesn't care.  HNCP has a notion of "External Connection", and
an External Connection may provide one or more External Prefixes.  HNCP
will assign to each link in the HNCP one /64 from each External Prefix.

HNCP doesn't care where these External Connection TLVs come from, but it
is my understanding that there is WG consensus that DHCPv6-PD is the
default mechanism.  I don't think there's anything in any of our RFCs that
would prevent an implementation from obtaining External Prefixes using
a different protocol, e.g. manual configuration, a proprietary
provisioning protocol or even algorithmically derived from an IPv4 address
(as with 6rd).

Both implementations of HNCP are easy to extend with a different mechanism
for obtaining External Prefixes, should you wish to experiment.
