Hello Andrew,

Yes, one can assign more than one address to an interface. But as I wrote in another massage, apparently Linux is a bit more flexible than Windows. When I wrote the above I was not aware that in Linux one can have both the SLAAC address and a fixed address.

My binkd answers to more than one address too. It answers on the SLAAC address and on the PE addresses. But the latter won't do much good.

In Windows there is no simple way to combine a fancy self choosen host part with a dynamic prefix. Not that I know of...


Cheers, Michiel
