      I can't seem to get my dhcpv6 server to send out a search domain.
      My linux client ends up with an ipv6 nameserver address and no domain entry in /etc/resolv.conf.
      I've set the domain as the domain of the pfsense machine, and while debugging i've also added it as the search domain and actual domain in the dhcpv6 settings screen on pfsense. Still no domain is sent out. I am using static leases.

      I'm looking at it in wireshark now. The client sends an option request for dns and domain search list. The server response has only a DNS server.

      RA is on managed mode, as I don't want any auto configured IP's.
