Does FreeNAS 11.1-US support DHCPv6 stateful mode and provide the DHCPv6 server a DUID? The configuration for FreeNAS 11.1-US IPv6 rtsol is used when "Auto configure IPv6" is enabled. It does not seem FreeNAS is supporting the DHCPv6 because it does not request an IPv6 address.

I have not been able to figured out how to configure FreeNAS to obtain it's IPv6 address from the DHCPv6 server.
I have the DHCP server providing FreeNAS server a reserved IPv4 address and would like to do the same with IPv6.

I found a very old thread which does not provide a final answer. https://forums.freenas.org/index.php?threads/stateful-ipv6-configuration.28441/#post-185587

There have been IPv6 improvements for 11.2 (BETA1 due out early next week). If the issue persists after updating, please create a report at bugs.freenas.org and post the issue number here.

Did you have any success? I'm on 11.2-U7 and I can't get an ipv6 address from a pfsense dhcpv6 server in managed mode.
