I did appreciate your spanking trees too!

Sorry, autocorrect was “helping”. I meant non-tree topologies. :)

Regarding the comment below. If two routers are attached to the same link, they will both request a prefix for the link. That’s not what you want.

We have a solution for this for stub router which would work generally. 

Regarding relaying, as you say that will work when there are multiple upstream routers. You just need to know where to relay to. Don’t think we can assume site-wide multicast. 

In order for relay to be an option, the router that would act as a relay must already have done DHCPv6 pd to number the link to which the subsidiary requesting router is attached. So there is no need for site-wide multicast here. 

Regarding multihoming. MPMH is unlikely to ever work well, so I am also (unhappily) accepting to drop that. 

Not ready to give up on this yet, but I agree that it is out of scope. 

BTW, regarding Jon-tree topologies, from the perspective of a requesting router, there will always be a direct path to the delegating router. If there are two paths, the same prefix will be assigned over both paths. I think this means that a loop can’t happen and you don’t need spanking tree, but we’d need to think about it. Again out of scope for this document, though—this document is about address allocation, not routing.
