I’m assuming we are talking about DHCPv6 here.
I don’t believe there is a way to cause the server to not listen to the
multicast address. I believe RFC 8415 requires that the server listen on that
address. You could limit the server to listening on the loopback interface.
Then you could use the server’s firewall to forward traffic sent to port 567 to
the server on the loopback interface. You’d probably need to set something
like this:
"interfaces-config": {
"interfaces": [ “lo/::1" ]
}
and then forward to ::1 using the firewall.
Disclaimer: I’ve never tried that but it might work.
