Yes, i already run radvd at home. I have temporarily disabled it because i wanted to experiment with DHCP6 for some business work ( and general curiosity ).

When i change the subnet block to subnet6 

2001:44b8:7988:c60::/64 {

The client still sends solicits to the server, but now the server no longer receives them. Checking wether the client could connect to ff02::1:2 came back with " UDP connect: No route to host"
