   Thanks! If somebody else has comments let me know.
   
   The main issue with the IPv6 code is that the IPv4 code was "copy pasted" and the whole anology like DHCP was taken to IPv6.
   
   With IPv6 DHCP is only used for informational purposes, but clients (Instances) obtain their address by the Router Advertisements.
   
   As this is done using the MAC address of the client we can predict the IPv6 address the server will obtain.
