which is used to ensure you get the same prefix. afaik, there is no guarantee, although a provider's ipv6 range is so huge that reuse will likely never happen. RIPE hands out /28 by default I think and the minimum is a /32.
I have DHCP from my ISP on IPv4. The addresses change so seldom they're virtually static. The only thing that appears to cause a change is either the ISP makes significant changes in the network or I change hardware, resulting in a new lease. The host name, based on my router and modem MAC addresses never changes, unless I change hardware. So, on the rare occasion that it changes, I just update my DNS. I'd expect the same situation on IPv6. The address changes so seldom, it's not an issue. Now, if I was running a business, with customers coming to my web site, then it might be a different matter. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
