In fact, I try to set up the same IP on Windows for both interfaces, and it fails: the eth does not accept 192.168.1.50 and goes instead to 169.254.4.71, and WiFi reactivates.
People usually use DHCP these days, so you'd never see the same address assigned to the 2 interfaces.
With DHCPv4 that may be the case, but DHCPv6 will usually assign by DUID (https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc3315#section-9). Only fairly recently it has become feasible to use MAC addresses in DHCPv6 (https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc6939). As long as I make sure WiFi and (wired) ethernet are not connected at the same time, the address they receive from my DHCPv6 server will be the same. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org
