I am developing Dhcpv6 now and have a piece of questions
I am wondering about solicit and advertise messages.

If a server receives a solicit message, which includes IA with encapsulated IA address option, from client,
does dhcpv6 server have to assign IPv6 address?

If not, what is the main purpose that solicit message includes IA and IA Address option?

I think that server just informs whether it can assign addresses with IA or not, not with IA Address option
Isn't it right?

Thanks for your reading. 
I hope that I receive your definite answer as soon as possible.
