The network status will still be seen as online in gnome since ipv4 is still active. The user then have to manually remove the dhcpv6 lease files and restart ipv6 connection/restart network manager to regain IPv6 connectivity. * This is a cherry-pick from Network manager 1.10.8 (Ubuntu's version is based on 1.10.6): https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/NetworkManager/NetworkManager/-/commit/7fbbe7ebee99785e38d39c37e515a64a28edef0f * Upstream bug: https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=783391 [Test Plan] * The exact conditions for reproducing this bug on mixed IPv4/IPv6 networks are not known but includes using both IPv4 and IPv6, both using dhcp. [Where problems could occur] * The change is in the dchp lease expiration handling so verify that there is no regression in dhcp renewals on different type of configuration include IPv6 [Other Info] * We have tested this patch on a couple of clients where we have seen this this problem. If this patch is feasible to include in Ubuntu 18.04 we could request more users to test.
