+        <para>The Rapid Commit option, described in

+        by the Kea DHCPv6 server. However, support is disabled by default for

+          For clients connected to other subnets, the server will ignore the
+          Rapid Commit option sent by the client and will follow the 4-way
+          exchange procedure, i.e. respond with the Advertise for the Solicit
+          containing Rapid Commit option.
