Summary: This draft is almost  ready for publication as a standard track RFC.

Major issues:

Minor issues:

1.      In section 4 first paragraph say “DHCP servers supporting
OPTION_V6_PREFIX64 should be configured with U_PREFIX64 and at least one
multicast PREFIX64 (i.e., ASM_PREFIX64 and/or SSM_PREFIX64).” From the rest of
the section I understand that for SSM deployments both U_PREFIX64 and
SSM_PREFIX64 MUST be configured. What is the reason for “should” in the first
paragraph? Are there cases where ASM_PREFIX64 or ASM_PREFIX64 and SSM_PREFIX64
are specified and there is no need to specify U_PREFIX64, maybe these cases
should be described.

Nits/editorial comments:
1.      RFC2119 keywords in the document are sometime capitalized and sometime
not. I think it will be good to have consistency and if they do not intend to
have RFC2119 semantics some other words should be used
