Hello,
I am trying to enable temporary and/or stable addresses for a link and
am most likely running into troubles with the device naming. However, I
do not change any network name myself, neither in udev nor as part or a
link file, it's just the standard system settings (from Arch, in case
that matters).
my sysctl.conf (both ens3 and eth0 refer to the same interface):
net.ipv6.conf.ens3.addr_gen_mode = 2
net.ipv6.conf.ens3.use_tempaddr = 2
net.ipv6.conf.eth0.addr_gen_mode = 2
net.ipv6.conf.eth0.use_tempaddr = 2
And the logs read:
journalctl -b0 | grep -E 'sysctl|ens3|eth0'
08:56:46 systemd[263]: systemd-sysctl.service: Executing:
/usr/lib/systemd/systemd-sysctl
08:56:46 systemd-sysctl[263]: Couldn't write '2' to

08:56:46 systemd-sysctl[263]: Couldn't write '2' to

08:56:51 systemd-networkd[459]: ens3: IPv6 successfully enabled
08:56:51 systemd-networkd[459]: ens3: Link UP
08:56:51 systemd-networkd[459]: ens3: Gained carrier
...
As it appears to me, the eth0 settings from sysctl.conf have been
accepted - at least no errors are logged in this regard -, but are lost,
because the interface got renamed afterwards. The ens3 interface was not
yet known at time of invoking systemd-sysctl, and therefore we get the
errors. That in turn means, the settings are not being applied.
To make things worse, in sysctl.conf I've additionally set:
net.ipv6.conf.default.stable_secret=<some hex poem>
net.ipv6.conf.default.addr_gen_mode=2
net.ipv6.conf.all.addr_gen_mode=2
Which results in all IP address having a stable privacy scope link,
_execpt_ of course ens3. The one that would be by far most important.
What am I missing here? And insight is highly appreciated
Thanks
Ede
