Once upon a time, Dan Williams <dcbw(a)redhat.com> said:
You can set this on a per-connection basis with NM. It just defaults
to
"unset", which then defaults to "on". You can also set a global
default
through /etc/NetworkManager/NetworkManager.conf so that all new
connections on your system get "disabled" when they have the privacy
value unset.
I like privacy extensions - that's not the point. The point is that
Fedora with NM is violating the RFC by removing deprecated addresses
while they are still in use, something that the kernel managed to get
right (why NM had to take over this management of them from the kernel,
and then get it wrong, I don't know).
I reported this a year ago to BZ but never got a single response.
