I'm working with one enterprise right now, and one of the options on
the table is "have a separate wifi segment for android with SLAAC,
and use the NAC software in place to bump android devices to that
subnet".

Which is a major PITA...

(What they *want* is "IPAM shows what IPv6 address is in use on which
device in the network", which DHCPv6 would do nicely, including
static assignments via DHCP reservations - while everything else
relies on "IPv6/MAC ND logging on the router" or other disintegrated
fumbling...)
