I have been using IPv6 on my LAN for a few weeks now. Ping, SSH, NFS -- all fine. Three 19.04 machines, all good.



Yesterday, after an update, the IPv6 stopped working. Processing a request to an IPv6 address on the LAN the system hangs. I say 'after an update' because I did do an update and some hours later I noticed the problem; so I'm not saying the update caused it, just noting the coincidence.



I had been using the mngtmpaddr address as reported by the ip a command. On a try I switched to using the other IPv6 address (the /128 address) and now that one works.



This is not only a curiousity. There's an issue for me because I have been using my NFS server's IPv6 address to mount its shares when I'm away from the LAN. Previously I had to change my /etc/fstab whenever I was away from home. So :
So what is going on?



  1. What is the difference between these two addresses?

  2. Why would the mngtmpaddr stop working?

  3. Will this change still work from outside the LAN?

          After some research I see that the IPv6 addresses expire -- unless assigned otherwise. This default is, I believe, to protect the privacy of clients. This concern however is at odds with the requirement that servers have a consistent address.



          So that's why the IPv6 addresses stopped working.



          To acquire a 'static' - permanent - IPv6 I have added a IPv6 address to the netplan configuration.



           renderer: networkd
          wifis:
          wlp3s0:
          dhcp4: yes -- set through DHCP reservation
          dhcp6: no
          addresses: [10.0.0.120/24,"-:-:-:-::-/128"]


          Where I took the IPv6 address from the current dynamically assigned IPv6 address, and the gateway from the default route of the ip -6 r command. (I found I had to reboot the machine to apply. A simple netplan apply or networking restart did not suffice.)



          This assigns a forever lifetime to the IPv6 address and creates another temporary IPv6.



          One of my three machines (all fully updated 19.04) resists creating a forever lifetime. I have fixed this with



          ip a change <device IPv6 address> dev <device id> preferred_lft forever
