I know this is an old thread, but I too find these messages annoying.
I have:
dhcp-range=set:lan,::,static,constructor:br-lan,slaac,ra-names,12h
which as far as I can tell is perfectly valid. My unknown IPv6 clients
get configured with SLAAC/RA, but clients which are known via dhcp-host
get a DNS record so can be referenced by name (and the same name as
their IPv4 address). Unfortunately the unknown clients do a DHCPv6
SOLICIT and get back "no addresses available".
With "static" mode "no addresses available" is a lower priority error,
although it could still be of interest because perhaps we expect a
(known) address to be allocated, but is failing due to different DUID
types or something (and you would want to know about that).
So, it would be really nice to be able to optionally quieten these
messages (with quiet-dhcp6 would be simplest).
Regards,
Ian
