DHCPv6 client in base

[driesm.michiels at gmail.com]

Hi net mailing list,

 

Has anyone ever thought or considered integrating an IPv6 DHCP client in
base?

 

net/dhcp6 isn't really maintained anymore from the KAME days it works for
basic functionality but fails when a more complex config is required.

net/isc-dhcp44-client is a mess to configure and requires scripting for
prefix delegations let alone a multiple prefix allocation. 

net/dhcpcd (NETBSD's native in base client btw) is a nice and configurable
client for both IP stacks and kinda works.


The kinda refers to some open reviews that are required before it is fully
functional in FreeBSD.

 

Other alternatives? Thoughts?
