      Hi guys

      I have an ISP that provides PD via DHCPv6

      I have got it all configured and it works until the firewall reboots, when it does it looses the lease, the interface is not getting any ipv6 assigned and until i bounce the interface, there is nothing.

      Ipv4 stays is place and remains working

      where do i begin with investigation (could not see anything in the logs)

      thank you

        Do a packet capture of the full DHCPv6 sequence and post the capture file here.

        I haven't lost my mind. It's around here...somewhere...
