Hi, I noticed during the dhc wg meeting, a question was raised about whether a client should send a new IA_PD option with a different IAID to request for the preferred prefix length during Renew. In my opinion, this could be an option, since the client could get a different prefix. If the client doesn't want to keep two prefixes, it could release the old prefix. However, one issue with using a different IAID is that it requires stable storage of the requesting router device, since rebooting the device would cause it to use the original IAID on the IA_PD, and then it might get back the original prefix, if the original prefix hadn't been released or expired. Regards, Tianxiang
