Hi,

Android does not have a complete IPv6 implementation and should not be IPv6
enabled.  Please do your part and complain to Google that Android does not
support DHCPv6 for address assignment.


no different to other devices historically.... it can get IPv6 connectivity via
SLAAC and then rely on DHCP (v4!) for getting IPv4 DNS servers to which it can send
AAAA records. 

very much like OSX used to be.....
