could not create object IPv6 unless I add a Mac

[maxadamo]

I am using version 0.6.0 of this library and I am importing objects:

from infoblox_client import objects

I got these two examples working:

objects.IPv4.create(ip="192.168.0.1")
objects.IPv6.create(ip="2001:798:3::257", mac="00:50:56:a1:43:5b")

but this one is failing:

objects.IPv6.create(ip="2001:798:3::257")

and this is the error:

ValueError                                Traceback (most recent call last)
Cell In[27], line 1
----> 1 objects.IPv6.create(ip="2001:798:3::257")

     48 return "00:" + mac[9:] + ":" + mac
