This doesn't really have anything to do with DHCP, but gets done
automatically by the kernel when any IPv6 address is added via netlink.
The address will be "tentative" while the kernel does DAD, and then the
tentative flag will be removed, and the address will become available
for use by sockets and such.  So does this really need any work on your
part?
