DHCPv6 PD has only solve the prefix request and assign process based on the preconditions:

a) the requesting router knows the prefix length it should request;
b) the requesting router knows what device to send the request;
c) The requested device have enough resource for the request.

However, human configuration or human intervention are needed to meet these preconditions. The current proposed solution focuses on to autonomic processes to solve these preconditions.
