y'all might want to look over the work of the ietf homenet working group for some insight into plans for dhcp-pd, and routing interactions, in the home and small business, at least.

some dhcpv6 specific info is spread around using the new hncp protocol.
blatant plug - https://github.com/sbyx/odhcp6c is now the best open source dhcpv6 (and pd) client "out there" right now IMHO. Dave Täht Let's go make home routers and wifi faster! With better software! https://www.gofundme.com/savewifi

2) What are the most common ways of managing the routing of delegated prefixes in the ISPs routing domain? Has a standard method/best practice emerged yet? Routing protocols? IPv6 RAs?
One obvious answer would be routing protocols. In my brief googling, I've seen a forum post that seems to indicate that Comcast makes use of RIPng on their CPE to propagate routing information for prefixes delegated to it. Can someone confirm this? This would seem as good a method as any to do this, albeit with obvious security concerns. We've build a small tool which watches the dhcpd6 lease file for changes and injects the PD routes using exabgp (iBGP session with corresponding IA_NA address as next-hop for the IA_PD prefix).
Best Regards, Frederik Kriewitz Thanks for all the replies.
The gist I get is that no real SOP/BCP has emerged yet for doing this, and everyone is home-brewing their own methods. One of the other reasons I ask is because I was experimenting with Comcast Business IPv6. I was sent a cable modem that could do dual-stack and did PD. But it seemed really broken. It would only assign a /64, and never routed anything it assigned back to the head end as far as I could see through the customer interface. I was told that the firmware was broken. - Jim
