Fixed In Version:
Doc Type: Bug Fix
Doc Text:
Cause: DNSmasq requires specifying the prefix length when an IPv6 network is other than a /64. Consequence: Hosts failed to PXE boot when using a non-/64 network. Fix: Include the prefix length in the DNSmasq configuration. Result: Hosts will now DHCP and PXE boot on IPv6 networks of any prefix length.

What did you expect to happen?
I expect installer handle any subnet and configure dnsmasq accordingly

How to reproduce it (as minimally and precisely as possible)?

Provide in install-config.yaml:
machineCIDR: fd2e:6f44:5dd8:face:b001::/80 #for control plane network and
provisioningNetworkCIDR: fd2e:6f44:5dd8:face:b00c::/80 

http://www.thekelleys.org.uk/dnsmasq/docs/dnsmasq-man.html
declare that dnsmasq.conf doesn't specify the subnet prefix length in dhcp-range option so it defaults to /64 which doesn't match the interface(/80)
