[Kea-users] Hints

Thanks for the response. I am using a Mikrotik router and I can get
the desired PD from Charter Spectrum just fine but when I try to do the
same with Kea it always assigns me the delegated-len value of /56
regardless of what hint I include.

In this example my Mikrotik is set with prefix hin ::/64
In Kea the DEBUG DHCP6 PACKET RECEIVED it shows the prefix=::/64
