For IA_NA, are you suggesting to use this option to get multicast addresses?
I think that IA_NA is defined for unicast addresses.


The other option we need is for VXLAN Network Identifier (VNI) which is
certainly not an address.

For IA_PD, I believe also is not appropriate to request multicast address
to be assigned, as it is not related to prefix delegation.

Please advise.
