DHCPv6: is it possible to have a fixed prefix delegation for a host while allowing the IPv6 address assigned to be dynamic?

Erik, 

This works fine for me. The only difference I see is that I have a range6 defined that would include the static and i'm not using include. Try a test not using include and see if it works for you.
