I believe you have a type for ipv6.  For ipv6, it should be the same as 
for ipv4: method=auto

Or at least this is what i got when it worked correctly: ipvr dhcp 
address and dns update plus RA for default route ... same as for ifcfg-rh.

One thing I have learned while  "playing around".  To make sure things 
are working correctly: On the client, stop NetworkManager, delete the 
keyfile and lease files.  On the server, stop named, dhcpd, and dhcpd6; 
then delete the dhcpd lease info files, and restart everything.  Now, 
back to the client, start NetworkManager and then enable the network 
device (usually Auto Ethernet).

When I did not clean up everything and start fresh on both sides, I got 
unpredictable results.
