Summary

Fixes the bug where DHCPv6_am.make_reply() would return a DHCP6_Solicit message in response to a DHCP6_Request, which violates RFC 8415. The correct behavior is to send a DHCP6_Reply.

Changes

  • Replaced DHCP6_Solicit with DHCP6_Reply in the handler for msgtype == 3
  • Fixed the test case to verify correct behavior

Closes: #4689
