Excuse my ignorance, but can DHCPv6 and SLAAC be run in parallel? Thank you, - Nich

Please do your part and complain to Google that Android does not support DHCPv6 for address assignment.I use android devices on my network with IPv6 connectivity, and no issues at all. It gets an address. Does DNS via IPv6, and can send packets over IPv6. I don't use or need DHCPv6. You may not be able to roll out IPv6 to them because you need DHCPv6. In this case I suggest you complain to Google. Other people may not be able to roll out IPv6 to them because they need DHCPv6. They should also complain to Google. Suggesting that nobody rolls out IPv6 on them because they don't support one feature they may not even need is absurd. DHCPv6 is not a prerequisite for IPv6. Regards, Dave
