[Kea-users] Kea DHCPv6 not working for a relayed subnet, but fine for local subnet

[chris at slater-walker.net]

Hi all

 

This has stumped me.

 

I'm using Kea 1.1.0 on Ubuntu 18.04 for IPv6 only. The v4 server is not
installed.

 

It is serving addresses for the local subnet with no problem. I have a guest
wireless network connected to an interface on my Cisco 1941 router. This
router has a dhcpv6 relay destination of my Kea server.

 

Tcpdump on the server shows that the server is receiving relayed DHCP
requests from clients on the guest network, and the packets contain a link
address which is valid in the subnet definition in the Kea config; however
the server is not responding in any fashion to these requests. It's as if
they were not there at all.

 

I have tried the "relay" IPv6 address option in the relevant subnet
definition, even though it shouldn't be necessary, but it makes no
difference.

 

I'm sure this worked for a while but now I just can't make it work.

 

Here is my config:
