Wicked apparently defaults to using a MAC based IPv6 address and NetworkManager a privacy address (that isn't based on a MAC address). If having a consistent address is important to you, switch privacy off in NetworkManager and you'll get a MAC based IPv6 address too or use DHCPv6 for IPv6 address configuration (supported by both wicked and NetworkManager).
Switching privacy off doesn't actually work. With the NetworkManager in Tumbleweed and that in Leap 15.0, you still get a randomly chosen local part of the address, and different for each system. After turning privacy off, I have to edit the appropriate connection file in "/etc/NetworkManager/system-connections, and change "stable-privacy" to "eui64" As for using DHCPv6: If I turn on address allocation in my router, then the result is that with NetworkManager, I get two IPv6 addresses. I get the one that NetworkManager would use without DHCPv6, and I also get the additional address assigned by the router/DHCPv6-server. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org
