when i read RFC4193,I found it does not mentioned what should do when the

Does it will produce another pseudo-random  global id  or it will  recover
the global id that it produced before it reboot?

I ask this question because i think that in a site,it is very probably that
sometimes  the device have to  be rebooted,  if each time the rebooted
router
produce a new ULA global id,all devices that attached to the router have to
renumbered , i do not think it is a happy  process.

This is not the expected operation. I believe more suitable is: site administrator generates a pseudo-random global id and configures on the routers. ULA does not give automatic router configuration...
