> Nodes use IPv6 stateless address autoconfiguration to generate
> addresses without the necessity of a DHCP server. Addresses are
> formed by combining network prefixes with an interface identifier. On
> interfaces that contain embedded IEEE Identifiers, the interface
> identifier is typically derived from it. On other interface types,
> the interface identifier is generated through other means, for
> example, via random number generation. This document describes an
> extension to IPv6 stateless address autoconfiguration for interfaces
> whose interface identifier is derived from an IEEE identifier. Use of
> the extension causes nodes to generate global-scope addresses from
> interface identifiers that change over time, even in cases where the
> interface contains an embedded IEEE identifier. Changing the
> interface identifier (and the global-scope addresses generated from
> it) over time makes it more difficult for eavesdroppers and other
> information collectors to identify when different addresses used in
> different transactions actually correspond to the same node.
