What's the use case for static IPv6 configuration?
- alexvitkov 2y agobecause you don't want your server's ip to change.
- tatersolid 2y agoDon’t all modern server OS choose a deterministic interface ID based on the network in the router advertisement? (As I recall this is usually via hashing the MAC with the RA prefix plus some system-wide but stable seed, to avoid using the MAC directly as the interface ID)
- remram 2y agoFor servers, if you have anything pointing to it (DNS, clients pointing to the IP, firewall rules...)
