Usually, but not always. For example, the link local address for my router is fe80::1:1. I would tempted to bet it has both the "regular" fe80::mac:addr and that simple address. That is how we do the routing in the datacentre and the office.
Ifconfig shows only one: inet6 fe80::1:1%bge0 prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x1 Wireshark shows the same thing, only fe80::1:1 This is with pfSense. Don't forget, the IP address is not what's used to transmit data over the wire. It's simply used to determine the MAC address, which is then used. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
