So the solution is to include "-cf /dev/null" on the command line:
"/usr/local/sbin/dhclient -v -6 -cf /dev/null em0"
I do not understand why this makes it work whereas without it it fails.
Thoughts?

Host is FreeBSD v12 using the dhcp-4.4.1 client complied from ports.
The client is able to get v4 leases without issue. However, when I issue a
request for a v6 lease it fails with "Advertised lease scored 0, toss it.":
#/usr/local/sbin/dhclient -v -6 em0

My ISP is Cox and when I called they said that from where they sit that the
lease has been issued and is ready to be used. I don't understand why the
client is refusing to use it.
Thoughts?

Bruce,
Thanks for the response.
I am working from a position of not using a configuration profile initially.
It would make sense that if dhclient was expecting a conf file that it would
complain about it. But, I would expect it to say "Where's the conf file?"
instead of that the advertised lease scored a zero.
As you can see here, the router when it responds with its "advertise" packet
that it includes the DNS servers and the IA Address:

If it is a you are indicating that dhclient is expecting a conf file is there a
way to disable that behavior so it does not have to talk to null?

Well, your "fix" is to prevent dhclient from reading the default
configuration file by telling it to read "/dev/null" instead. The obvious
implication is that something in the existing file that is breaking things. The
most likely, off the top of my head, is that your configuration is set to
require an option that is not being provided. That instantly triggers a score
of zero.
For example, the example configuration file that comes with the software
requires "subnet-mask" and "domain-name-servers"; neither of which are in the
lease you are getting.
I am sorry if you have previously provided the configuration file. I
confess I have not really been following the thread.
