Dear Team,
I'm investigating IPv6, and wondering how, on Fedora 19, the best way to determine the appropriate DUID (DHCP unique identifier) to be used in the host sections, along with fixed-address statements.
If this is documented, please mention where.

Unfortunately there is more than one method that a client may choose to make up their DUID, making it difficult if not impossible to predict what DUID a client will use. However once the client does use a DUID, it should not change.
There is DUIDLL Based on Link Layer Address DUIDLLT Based on Link Layer Address plus Time DUIDEN Based on Enterprise Number
ISC DHCPv6 barfs on PPP links which have no LL address. see https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=626514#c83
If this is documented, please mention where.
