--- Comment #38 from Bill C. Riemers briemers@redhat.com 2011-04-27 12:25:09 EDT --- At least with Fedora 14, I can confirm that you can enable rfc3401 privacy by adding the respective option in the /etc/sysctl.conf. e.g.
echo net.ipv6.conf.eth0.use_tempaddr=2 >> /etc/sysctl.conf
presumably you could specify all devices with:
echo net.ipv6.conf.all.use_tempaddr=2 >> /etc/sysctl.conf
You can enable it at runtime per device via:
ifdown eth0 sysctl net.ipv6.conf.eth0.use_tempaddr=2 ifup eth0
This to me seems much better than setting an option inside an ifcfg file.
