Description Abhijeet Sadawarte 2021-09-29 09:25:33 UTC 
$ openshift-install version
4.8.9

Platform: BM IPI 

What happened?
If there's no DHCP6 pool configured for cluster machines, the bootstrap VM does not get the IPv6 IP address since the below two NM fields are not configured by default:

~~~
ipv6.dhcp-duid:                         
ipv6.dhcp-iaid: 
~~~

Anything else we need to know?

It appears that the bootstrap vm fix is landed in OCP 4.9:

Comment 1 Steven Hardy 2021-09-29 09:57:31 UTC 
This was fixed via https://github.com/openshift/installer/pull/5110 - I'll backport it since it's only fixed since 4.9
