thanks for your fast answer. dhcp client is always running but I cannot 
ping6 another server.
I have no messages in /var/log/syslog and no firewall.
At boot, IPV6 is OK.
So I suspect this bug
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/isc-dhcp/+bug/1551351
but after updating with dhcpclient 4.3.5, same issue

OK, I suspect answer 1 because I have no traces in /var/log/syslog but 
restarting dhclient give answer 2
I start a sniffer client to capture DHCP6 packets
