It looks as though you have a couple of issues with the network's IPv6 
configuration:

- RA and DHCPv6 seem to be advertising different DNS servers (check 
"show net0.ndp/dns6" and "show net0.dhcpv6/dns6")

- neither RA nor DHCPv6 is providing a global IPv6 address for iPXE

The upshot is that your RA/DHCPv6 configuration is providing iPXE with 
an IPv6 address for the DNS server, but is not providing iPXE with a 
usable IPv6 address from which to reach the DNS server.

If this isn't enough information to resolve the problem, then could you 
build with DEBUG=ndp,dhcpv6 and provide the output from "ifconf -c ipv6"?

Thanks,

Michael
