    core: prefer connection.stable-id to generate IPv6 stable privacy addresses · 0a5af391
    Thomas Haller authored
    The Network_ID for generating RFC 7217 stable privacy IPv6 addresses
    is by default the UUID of the connection.
    
    Alternatively, prefer "connection.stable-id" as Network_ID to generate
    the stable addresses. This allows to configure a set of connections that
    all use the same Network_ID for generating stable addresses.
    
    Note that the stable-id and the UUID do no overlap, that is two
    connections
        [connection]
        uuid=uuid1
        stable-id=
    and
        [connection]
        uuid=uuid2
        stable-id=uuid1
    generate distinct addresses.
