Is there any progress being made towards functional IPv6 IP tracking in
PF?  I noticed after I upgraded from 5.7 to 6.3, pfdhcplistener no longer
takes the udp_reflector data I was sending from my DHCPv6 servers.  Its
like it just ignores it.  ( I know it only ever looked for the
fingerprint/vendor/enterprise info and didn't update).

#1.  Forwarding DHCPv6 using udp_reflector
#2.  Tracking IA-NA address per host
#3.  Making use of Framed-IPv6-Address RADIUS attribute
#4.  Performing firewall SSO updates

Less Important (At least to me):
#5.  Tracking IA-PD subnet per host (as a separate field).
#6.  Figure out a way to forward ND packets to PF for sites that use SLAAC
(Maybe snmp queries to routers or sflow data?)

In the end, I think we would probably need to expand the pf.iplog table to
be more like (Or have a separate table for ipv6 addresses?  I don't know
what is going to be most scalable/efficient):

mac, ip, start_time, end_time, ip6, start_time6, end_time6, ip6pd,
start_time6pd, end_time6pd, ip6na1, start_time6na1, end_time6na1, ip6na2,
start_time6na2, end_time6na2


Reasoning for so many fields:

In a network with both SLAAC and DHCP6 enabled, a device could have 4 ipv6
addresses.

1 - SLAAC address
2 - SLAAC temporary (Privacy extensions address)
3 - DHCP6 address
4 - DHCP6 PD Prefix

Now this is an improperly configured network, but there could be a legit
use-case for it.. You should really only use SLAAC or DHCP6, not both.

A Windows client will prefer/use the DHCP6 address, but the SLAAC and
SLAACtemp address are both valid and usable.

A Mac client will prefer/use the SLAAC temp address, but the SLAAC and
DHCP6 address are still valid and usable.

Android devices dont support DHCP6 (Because google is really stupid_

IOS Devices behave like OSX devices.

Most home routers will use DHCP6 address for their own communication,  some
will get a SLAAC address, some won't.  Most don't even need the NA address
and only require a PD address.
