      Hi, I have configured dhcp and dhcpv6 on my home network, and also configured dynamic dns for ipv4 and ipv6 to automatically update my own hosted dns server.

      IPv4 forward dynamic dns registration is working as expected.
      IPv4 reverse dynamic dns registration is not available in the web ui.

      IPv6 forward dynamic dns registration is not working, dhcpv6 server doesn't send out update queries.
      IPv6 reverse dynamic dns registration IS available but also not working.

      Anyone can confirm this behaviour?

        How are you testing that? If with a browser, you will not likely get reverse DNS, due to privacy addresses. Privacy addresses are used for outgoing connections. They are based on a random number and change daily. There's no way you're going to track that.

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