High everybody

AAMOE the starting procedure brings very often a new address for local use. As XU4 should be reachable by some other machines automatcally withour searching seconds an seconds I wonder if DHCP6 could help, when

searching takes too much time and they already do have fixed IPv6 adresses and DHCP is disgusting.

So, how the IPv6 ist made in Armbian?

TIA

You mean your MAC for Ethernet is changing? We haven't observe such problems ... can you provide full logs and check if MAC is changed on reboot. This is the only explanation why board will be getting a new IP. Other explanations are not related to this board. / Armbian, but your network / DHCP server.

Oh no, sorry, MAC is the only thing working constant and correct. MAC is always the same, only the IPv6 is changing. IPv4 ist changing too bur this is matter of DHCP of a horrible router from Alcatel

I have to live with. How are IPv6 are made and what is the programm used for it?

What if you simply set fixed IP address outside the DHCP range?

Well, one might say, problem solved?

But curious enough, but building a local address shouldn't be too difficult only make a complete other one? And why? 

 

Thank you at any rate
