IPv6CP - rfc 2472 --- why only IID, why not prefix too

["Rajan Srivastava" <rajan_srivastava at hotmail.com>]

Hi,

In rfc 2472, it is provisioned that PPP server will negotiate
interface identifier with PPP client, server will not pass on network 
prefix;
and prefix delegation is left for DHCPv6 etc.

What is rationale behind this strategy?

thanks & regards
Rajan
