The following errata report has been submitted for RFC8415,
"Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol for IPv6 (DHCPv6)".

--------------------------------------
You may review the report below and at:
https://www.rfc-editor.org/errata/eid6183

--------------------------------------
Type: Technical
Reported by: Fernando Gont <fgont@si6networks.com>

Section: 18.3.8

Original Text
-------------
   After all the addresses have been processed, the server generates a
   Reply message by setting the "msg-type" field to REPLY and copying
   the transaction ID from the Decline message into the "transaction-id"
   field.  The client includes a Status Code option (see Section 21.13)
   with the value Success, a Server Identifier option (see Section 21.3)
   with the server's DUID, and a Client Identifier option (see
   Section 21.2) with the client's DUID

Corrected Text
--------------
   After all the addresses have been processed, the server generates a
   Reply message by setting the "msg-type" field to REPLY and copying
   the transaction ID from the Decline message into the "transaction-id"
   field.  The server includes a Status Code option (see Section 21.13)
   with the value Success, a Server Identifier option (see Section 21.3)
   with the server's DUID, and a Client Identifier option (see
   Section 21.2) with the client's DUID

Notes
-----
The corrected text replaces "client" with "server".

I would like to thank Timothy Winters <tim@qacafe.com> for confirming that this is a bug in the specification.
