I recently received my v4 probe and I'm very happy with it. But unfortunately it doesn't support DHCPv6. I present a practical reason for implementing a DHCPv6 client on the probe.
After quite a bit of fruitless debugging "why does my Atlas probe not succeed in getting a DHCPv6 IA_NA lease?" today, google showed this old thread from 2019. Dear RIPE Atlas folks, why doesn't Atlas probes support DHCPv6 in 2023? All the stubborn reasons given why Android can't support DHCPv6 do not apply, and for the environment my v4 probe is running in, DHCPv6 is what we use - so it's DHCPv6 or no v6...
