I have seen plenty of information on IPv6 from a internal network
standpoint.  I have seen very little with respect to how a ISP is supposed
to handle routing to residential consumer networks. I have seen suggestions
of running RIPng.  The thought of letting Belkin routers (if you can call
them that) into the routing table scares me no end.

Is this way easier than I think it is?   Did somebody already write the book
that I can't find?
DHCPv6-PD (prefix delegation) with the relay installing static routes
is probably the most straightforward way. Letting home CPE participate
in routing does indeed seem like bad idea; I haven't heard that
seriously suggested before.

I had found the documentation on DHCPv6-PD but didn't see the mechanism for getting the assigned prefixes into the router.
