Re: [dhcwg] Question on relay agent behavior in DHCPv6 prefix delegation

The RFC doesn't get into details since it may not even be the
delegating router doing the route updates.   As an example, in a cable
network, it may be the CMTS (who plays the role of Relay Agent from
DHCPv6's perspective) who is snooping the PD traffic and may emit the
appropriate routing updates into the network (using some other
standard dynamic routing protocol such as OSPF).
