Hello,

I'm using IPv6 in stateful mode (DHCPv6) and whenever one of my computers requests an address or renews it, there is a log entry of that from dnsmasq-dhcp. Is there a way to disable that? I've disabled DHCPv4 logging but there's nothing for DHCPv6 so my logs get spammed with such messages
 
You can add quiet-dhcp6 for this. It won't be completely fixed until dnsmasq is up to the latest release candidate for dnsmasq.

Thanks. I will try that
 
I just telnet into the router and did a cat /tmp/etc/dnsmasq.conf and at the very bottom there's already quiet-dhcp6. Still my logs report stuff like

Code:
May  4 11:51:03 dnsmasq-dhcp[284]: DHCPREPLY(br0) 2a02:1811:900:500::1d13 00:01:00:01:1b:ef:9a:ba:10:fe:ed:03:6b:3f quark
 
Dnsmasq is not yet at the current version. Merlin's is at v2.73rc1, and this bug is not fixed until v2.73rc7.

Ah ok, it was not clear from your first reply :)
