Simon.
dnsmasq is acting as the DHCP server in the attached pcap.
I'm confused.
The code in dnsmasq to handle a dhcpv6 packet which has been relayed is
at line 233 in src/rfc3315.c
For each option in the relayed message:
If it's an encapsulated DHCPv6 request, is gets replaced with an
encapsulated DHCPv6 reply.
Any other option gets copied from the request to the reply EXCEPT option
79, which is not copied at all.
I can't see where the zero-length option 79 is coming from in that code,
it shouldn't be copied at all.
Looking at git blame, this code was fixed in 2019, around version 2.81.
Are you using really old code?
Cheers,
Simon.

Hi,
The router is dropping relay replies from dnsmasq because it sees the
Option 79 with lenght of 0 as invalie, i.e less that minimum length.
I have attached a pcap file showing that the reply from dnsmasq does
include Option 79 with len == 0.
RFC6939 - 6. DHCPv6 Server Behavior
"""
There is no requirement that a server return this option and its data
in a downstream DHCP message.
"""
I think we want to either copy all of the option data from the
Relay-forward message, or simply drop the entire option in the reply?
