I followed along some previous posts ([1](https://discourse.pi-hole.net/t/51965) [2](https://discourse.pi-hole.net/t/52054)) but I don't think my situation is covered. I've installed `dnsmasq` as a DHCP server for it to handle DHCP/DHCPv6 requests and I believe my configurations are correct, but `dnsmasq` continues to complain:

```auto
no address range available for DHCPv6 request via enx#######aa06

```

Granted, this is more of a `dnsmasq` issue, but I hope to get some support for it.

## Expected Behaviour:

I expect DHCPv6 to be properly handled, as I have enabled DHCPv6 support via Pi-Hole. See the following queries to see that the host is (mostly) properly configured and gets IPv6 connectivity.

- Raspberry 3B+
- `uname -a` =\> `Linux raspberrypi 5.10.63-v7+ #1496 SMP Wed Dec 1 15:58:11 GMT 2021 armv7l GNU/Linux`
- I have upstream IPv6 connectivity:

```auto
(server) $ dig -t aaaa +short myip.opendns.com @resolver1.opendns.com
2601:647:####::1000
(server) $ ip -6 addr s
1: lo: <LOOPBACK,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 65536 state UNKNOWN qlen 1000
    inet6 ::1/128 scope host 
       valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever
2: enx#######aa06: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 state UP qlen 1000
    inet6 2601:647:####::1000/128 scope global dynamic noprefixroute 
       valid_lft 2920sec preferred_lft 2920sec
    inet6 2601:647:####::136/128 scope global noprefixroute 
       valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever
    inet6 fe80::####:aa06/64 scope link 
       valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever

```

## Actual Behaviour:

No DHCPv6 address assigned/directed to my host.

```auto
(client) $ dig -t aaaa +short myip.opendns.com @resolver1.opendns.com
(client) $ ip -6 addr s
1: lo: <LOOPBACK,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 65536 state UNKNOWN qlen 1000
    inet6 ::1/128 scope host 
       valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever
2: wlp2s0: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 state UP qlen 1000
    inet6 fe80::####:b798/64 scope link noprefixroute 
       valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever

```
