Hi,
IPv6CP negotiates the interface identifier on both ends of link to ensure the unique
of address. The Address Configuration mechanism(either stateless or stateful) is still
needed. 
Now that Address Configuration mechanism includes duplicate address
detection, why IPv6CP need to negotiate interface identifier?
