My apologies, I think I may’ve misremembered which attempt produced which
result.  More careful investigation suggests it was actually dhclient I
was unable to configure in a config file.  So, I’m not sure I ever even
got the PD recognized by dhcpcd.  Perhaps I was not finding the right
examples.

First, I’d like to request of my ISP the PD and understand the answer.
If dhcpcd can also set up internal networks within the PD, that would
be ideal.  Again, I found with earlier work that some clients are able
to do more with “using” the network than others.  I have half a dozen
ish internal networks that I assign /64’s to, and distribute via RA.

Perhaps an answer to Karl’s question might provide me with what I need
as well.  Otherwise, an example or three of receiving and utilizing an
IA_PD response is what I am looking for.
