This one is riddling me. I have three Buster hosts that use Network Manager. Two are running Gnome and one is a Freedombox. I have several other hosts that I just enabled IPv6 DHCP via the /etc/network/interfaces configuration file. All hosts generate a SLAAC address and all receive a DHCP address. My router is running OpenWRT 19.07.4 updated as of yesterday.
In the OpenWRT DHCP configuration I have included an IPv6 Suffix parameter for all hosts. However, until I enabled the hosts to receive a DHCP address via ifup, I had never seen an IPv6 address that included that suffix. The ifup enabled hosts all receive an IPv6 address that ends with this configured suffix, which is exactly what I would like the hosts that use Network Manager to receive as well. The suffixes I have assigned have a relationship to the IPv4 addresses I have assigned each host so this is a handy way for me to visually associate an IPv6 address to a host. Has anyone managed to get Network Manager to work in a like manner? - Nate -- "The optimist proclaims that we live in the best of all possible worlds. The pessimist fears this is true."
