option

networking.interfaces.<name>.tempAddress

When IPv6 is enabled with SLAAC, this option controls the use of temporary address (aka privacy extensions) on this interface. This is used to reduce tracking.

See also the global option , which applies to all interfaces where this is not set.

Possible values are:

  • "default" to generate IPv6 temporary addresses and use these as source addresses in routing;
  • "disabled" to completely disable IPv6 temporary addresses;
  • "enabled" to generate IPv6 temporary addresses but still use EUI-64 addresses as source addresses;
