A lot of people have experience with these systems, but your 
question was indeed very broad. It would also help to have a 
bit of background on your environment and purpose. 

That said, you might want to look at source-verify security 
features and how they are implemented on these platforms (for 
example the uRFP check part). Resource DOS'ing of the PD pool, 
intentionally of not, is also something that I was worried about. 
(a badly implemented client could send a new DHCPv6 request with 
a different DUID every few seconds for example).
