The first patch is a trivial fix to the network schema since the name in dhcp-host is really optional.
The second patch adds the capability to use the client id to improve the reliability of having a system use a fixed IPv6 address.

When I originally submitted the patches for DHCPv6 I thought that using the host name for specifying hosts with fixed IPv6 addresses would work. Lots of testing proved that to be a foolish assumption. The only thing that works is to specify the ID (Client ID). This has been testing with DUID-LLT, DUID-LL, and DUID-UUID. One of the most difficult parts in this was getting the patterns in the schemas correct for the various types of DUID. I think I have tested them sufficiently but ??? One of the more difficult things was to handle bytes where the leading zero is suppressed. Gene
