      I don’t understand it either. On one hand people say don’t remember addresses, use DNS and on the other DNS relies on static addresses but then every device is “supposed” to have random addresses via SLAAC or privacy addresses. It just doesn’t seem to tie together very well, but if you use them like IPv4 addresses you’re apparently doing it wrong.

      Not sure if you know privacy extension is mostly for outbound traffic. When you go to a website it well use privacy ipv6. Can still use management ipv6 for local connections. For max privacy every device should have it enabled as there are ways to trace if some devices do not have it enabled on your network.

          From reading one device can ruin the privacy extension use. Don’t know if a server would be they bad since it isn’t going to sites.
