Ive installed ASUS-WRT Merlin version 384 and am now experiencing the following error constantly in my routers system log:
eb 21 07:14:39 dnsmasq[5847]: bad IPv6 address at line 28 of /etc/dnsmasq.conf

Feb 21 07:16:09 dnsmasq[5902]: FAILED to start up
I am using an Asus RT-AC88U device, native IPv6 is enabled and is assigning IPv6 addresses to clients correctly using stateless allocation via a /56 prefix delegation from my ISP.
The offending line in dnsmasq.conf:
dhcp-option=dnsf11,option6:23,[192.168.2.1]
This is the ifconfig output:
br0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 1C:B7:2C:75:8D:50
inet addr:192.168.2.1 Bcast:192.168.2.255 Mask:255.255.255.0

This is a completely expected output, this is what my ISP (Internode in Australia) allocates via Prefix delegation.
I am not terribly sure how to solve this, I would genuinely appreciate some community guidance on how to workaround this problem and get dnsmasq working (particularly as I want it to resolve internal host names).
If additional data is needed, please do let me know.
