The real problem is there are distinct use cases for both SLAAC and DHCPv6
and the people in charge of DHCPv6 keep screwing up. It should be possible
to run either SLAAC/RA or DHCPv6 and have each offering provide the
required information without having to run additional services just to get

What's your view on
Golly whiz, I have always considered DHCPv6 and RA/SLAAC as configuration tools
for end systems. In addition, I have always considered the configuration of end
systems to be the (implicit)) responsibility of the end system owner, not the
network provider. I would love to find someone who could

"In da house", mDNS usually does the trick

Thanks for all the feedback
I also run dual stack with SLAAC for IPv6 assignment and my IPv4 DNS
servers resolve the records.
After skimming through rfc7217 + rfc4941 with the "autoconf temporary"
being used for outbound and "autoconf secured" being static and can thus be
used for reliable

Yep - thankfully, we have an option.
Operating two address assignment protocols is just silly.
