Then disable it. IPv6 SLAAC privacy extensions are device-controlled, meaning neither your ISP nor your router can force you to use/not use them (unless they're so incompetent that they do things like hand out /128s).
I disable privacy extensions on my server so that I can give it a static IP within the prefix, so I can vouch that (at least on Linux) the process is quite simple.
- hot_gril 3y agoWell, what I do is disable ipv6. I don't want the possibility that this is misconfigured, especially if the defaults tend to be wrong. Maybe my router doesn't even respect my firewall settings, like this: https://community.verizon.com/t5/Fios-Internet-and-High-Speed/IPv6-firewall-on-Fios-router-is-allowing-inbound-connections/td-p/1573464 https://community.verizon.com/t5/Fios-Internet-and-High-Spee... Maybe the customer is wrong, but this shouldn't even be a question. The rare times I want something publicly accessible, I use DMZ or port forwarding.
