It's fucking insane for systemd to be creating a second link-local address. Additionally, those addresses are only used on the local link, making any "privacy" address scrambling pretty silly.
- yjftsjthsd-h 2y agoTo be clear, I'm not saying I think this is a good idea, but it's legal. AFAIK, you can assign a single machine 192.168.1.2 and 192.168.1.3 at the same time, and you can likewise give a single machine/interface multiple fe80:: addresses. As to privacy... yeah, probably not super useful, but I don't see it hurting anything and if you're implementing IPv6 assignment logic it's probably just as well to always default to privacy protection.
