03:06 <gchristensen> I want to use my router's kresd for ipv6, but I don't have a static IP address. is this where I should go for those fe80 addresses, assigning each interface on my router a static fe80 address and filling that in for RDNSS?

03:22 <gchristensen> or fc00 I guess

03:23 <gchristensen> or fd00 I guess

05:34 <danderson> I guess? In theory, what _should_ happen is your router notices a change in upstream addr, and modifies its downstream advertisements. All clients reconfigure, and all is well.

05:34 <danderson> in practice though, I don't know of any v6 config server that doesthat.

11:23 <hexa-> gchristensen: I'd go with static ula addressing in addition to the dynamic global ones

11:32 <gchristensen> cool

13:12 <gchristensen> danderson: in theory, yeah, but tragicaly not in practice it seems :P

13:13 <gchristensen> hexa-: cool, thanks!

13:13 <gchristensen> I suppose I should probably randomly generate the IP instead of fd00:5:4::1

13:13 <hexa-> yep, router advertisment reconfiguration and timeouts are tough to get right

13:13 <hexa-> gchristensen: it depends on how much collision resistance you need

13:14 <gchristensen> well I have about 10 hosts and am unlikely to go through an acquisition or merger with another household

13:14 <hexa-> if you want to route that ULA network within DN42 for example you probably want to randomly generate it

15:25 <cransom> your fe80 will also be stable assuming you don't change your network ports around. i haven't set it up yet, but this is one of reasons i have a /56 on my linode to tunnel back to home for v6 that doesn't change with prefix delegation. and also because at some point in february, spectrum killed my inbound ipv6 access.
