Coming from IPv4 where every interface just had one address I configured (or got from DHCP). In the NetForge lab I enabled IPv6 on a router interface and suddenly show ipv6 interface lists two addresses: an fe80:: one I never typed, plus the 2001:db8:: global I set.
A few things I can't map back to IPv4:
fe80:: address for and why does it appear automatically?Trying to build the right mental model before I go further. Thanks!
