[ale] IPv6 & IPv4 DHCP

[Robert L. Harris via Ale]

Does anyone have a solution for serving both IPv4 and IPv6 DHCP? using
isc-dhcpd, it looks like I can do one or the other but with some things I
need to occasionally do one or the other and I like static reservations on
some systems as well. I've also had really bad luck with radvd, seems I
manage to take hosts offline when I run it and the various 'howto's I've
run into are all from 2011 as well.

Anyone have any good ideas or help?

They are separate beasts. You can do both with ISC-DHCPD but, AFAIK,
they are two different processes with two different configuration files.

Is there any reason you can't just do SLAAC or do you need DHCPv6 for
some particular reason?

   Anyone have any good ideas or help?

He does say he wants static reservations and SLAAC doesn't guarantee the
same address every single time. It's highly likely that it will happen
but the specification doesn't explicitly guarantee it.

Look at ISC's Kea.
