When I set the PCI Ethernet port to "Automatic, DHCP only". I do not get the expected global IPv6 IP address. I am assuming that this is the setting for stateful DHCP. Correct me if I am wrong. All I get is the IP address below.
inet6 fe80::1db0:3f9c:2ef7:1683 prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x20
I am testing this in a test lab and the network layout is Zorin laptop -- ASA FW -- DHCP server. On the FW I am seeing the message below and the Solicit packets are being dropped.

I tried editing the dhclient.conf file to add a real MAC as the dhcp-client-identifier then rebooted and it did not work. I am not even sure this is the correct thing to do. This is the last thing I need to get working so I can use Zorin on multiple laptops in our lab. Any help would be appreciated.
This could be a result of the 5520 code which is upgraded as far as I can since it is no longer supported by Cisco. I am trying it on a 5525x tomorrow. Also, this setup works with a Windows 10 laptop so my FW config is correct.
