Defines how automatically generated IPv6 addresses are created on the respective interface of the device.
- SNMP ID:
- 2.70.6.15
- Console path:
- Setup > IPv6 > LAN-Interfaces
- Possible values:
- EUI-64
- Automatically generated IPv6 addresses on the configured interface are generated according to the EUI-64 principle, i.e., the MAC address is used as the basis for the host portion of the IPv6 address.
- Stable-Privacy
- Automatically generated IPv6 addresses on the configured interface are formed according to RFC 7217. The generation no longer relies on the unique MAC address of the device or the interface but, for privacy reasons, uses a combination of random values and the received provider prefix. The generated interface identifier remains stable or identical as long as the received prefix is the same. If the prefix changes, the interface identifier and, therefore, the entire IPv6 address of the device also changes.
- Default:
- EUI-64
