Running DHCP server inside of the Guest VM instead of the host.

Hello,

I've recently tried to run KEA DHCP server inside of a Debian VM and the following host interface configuration, attached to that VM:
```
<network>
  <name>netasn-dhcpv6</name>
  <bridge name="netasn-dhcpv6" stp="on" delay="0"/>
  <mtu size="1500"/>
  <mac address="XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX"/>
  <dns enable="no"/>
  <ip family="ipv6" address="2a14:7581:feb::1" prefix="64">
  </ip>
</network>
```

But whenever I'm trying to run dhclient on another Debian VM attached to the same network I couldn't obtain the IPv6 lease from KEA DHCP.
The host is as well running Debian, 12 version.

Is there anyway to make the DHCP work from Guest VM instead of using built-in libvirt DHCP?
