I actually have two questions about the prefix-length fields in the option.
First, in section 4, there is the statement:
When ASM_PREFIX64 and SSM_PREFIX64 are configured, the length of
these prefixes must be /96.
Is that meant to be a MUST?
The second question is whether the absence of a particular prefix from a
particular option is indicated by a prefix length of zero. If so, should
that be mentioned somewhere in section 3, or is it covered by standard
DHCP practice?
