How does the device ask for a *second* DHCPv6'ed address for tethering or whatever?
RFC 3315 says you just chuck in multiple IA_NA (or IA_TA) options. The server will respond with multiple addresses.
And if a device makes a second (, third, fourth, ..) request with a different DUID, it'll get a second (,third, fourth,...) address oo, I guess.
Wouldn't the right thing to do is have the provider support dhcp prefix delegation, and the tether can run dhcp for its clients? (or even slaac?)

Well, the OP seems to be interested in campus wifi ... So perhaps we should stick to that first On the other thread, Randy said network operators use a lot of kinky knobs, thats just how it is. If these guys want to run without SLAAC, they can do that and know the outcome . It is just their kink. I dont think andoid will change, and even if they did you will need to wait 5 yeara for theupgrade cycle to push out old clients CB
