Just curious to know, 
It means that DNA RA has a kind of M/O flags of a general RA (rfc2462) 
or just uses them ? Above mention does not clear for me at this point.

Suggested to be added following above sentence (if appropriate of course),

In DNA, it is beneficial to rapidly configure hosts. The DHCPv6 operation as
4-message exchange, however, allows for redundancy (multiple DHCPv6
servers) without wasting addresses, as addresses are only provisionally
assigned to a host until the host chooses and requests one of the
provisionally
assigned addresses. If the DNA host supports the Rapid Commit Option 
[RFC3315], it is possible that the exchange can be shortened from a 
4-message exchange to a 2-message exchange.
