This behavior didn't work in my environment either with <a href="http://4.0.0." target="_blank">4.0.0.</a> I added<br>
a kludge to server/dhcpv6.c that provides the needed functionality in my<br>
environment. The code change is relatively small but I lack sufficient<br>
understanding of the backend to know whether there are any real side<br>
effects occurring.<br>
<br>
Essentially when a non-static lease is encountered, the server evaluates<br>
whether the host's group and scope information is available. When host<br>
specific info is available that is used instead of the global values.<br>
If host information isn't available, then a fallback to the global/lease<br>
scope is done.<br>

<br>
Hi,<br>
<br>
we noticed the same problem with the 4.0.0 version. I'm only able to<br>
match a host with the host-identifier if I also give the host a fixed<br>
address. So :<br>
<br>
host test-box {<br>
host-identifier option dhcp6.client-id<br>
00:01:00:01:47:b3:86:d0:00:07:5b:77:87:ae;<br>
option dhcp6.name-servers fc00:0:4491::18;<br>
}<br>
doesn't work, but<br>
host test-box {<br>
host-identifier option dhcp6.client-id<br>
00:01:00:01:47:b3:86:d0:00:07:5b:77:87:ae;<br>
fixed-address6 fc00:0000:4491:0200::25;<br>
option dhcp6.name-servers fc00:0:4491::18;<br>
}<br>
<br>
should work.<br>
This is causing a lot of troubles for us, but I never got a response on<br>
this list yet.<br>
<br>
Best regards,<br>
Dries<br>
