The primary target for tokenized identifiers are +server platforms where addresses are usually manually configured, rather than +using DHCPv6 or SLAAC. By using tokenized identifiers, hosts can still +determine their network prefix by use of SLAAC, but more readily be +automatically renumbered should their network prefix change [1].
