IPv6 Prefix Delegation Support on ICX Switches

Greetings! I'm in the process of setting up IPv6 in a dynamic environment, and I am wanting to be certain that I'm not missing something.

From what I can tell, it is NOT possible to configure an ICX 6450 to use a delegated prefix for IPv6 interfaces. Is this correct? If so, how would you recommend handling a dynamic prefix situation? There's no guarantee that the prefix assigned won't get changed on a regular basis, so static assignments based on the PD would be inadvisable.

Thanks!

IPv6 has no killer app. Delegation
