| Enabling this prevents disconnecting DHCP6 clients disconnecting from the ISP from sending a release message. Enabling it makes the client more likely to receive the same allocation on subsequent requests. Support for this option started in r2022.4. | Enabling this prevents disconnecting DHCP6 clients disconnecting from the ISP from sending a release message.

| + | IPv6 Router Advertisements (through IPv6 ICMP on the WAN interface) will add the default route. As a result, this option is usually required. However, some ISPs, such as Snap (NZ), or Internode (AU) may require you to specify the default route / workaround. | ||
