I would think that in most cases you should
likely be using router advertisements and
SLAAC(*), in which case the IPv6 "auto-config"
should just work and provide both ULA and
GUA addresses to your systems.
(*) There are some who prefer DHCPv6.

With SLAAC I am getting GUA addresses and link-local but no ULA
addresses. With DHCPv6 the router fails to work properly, it
randomly hangs and stops supplying either IPV4 or IPV6 addresses.
(and also does not supply ULAs).<br>
<br>
If the router is to supply <u>ULA</u> addresses, I assume you would
have to tell it the prefix. There is no place in my router config
to do that.<br>
<br>
Do most routers have that ability? I would like to control my ULA
addresses, or at least be sure they will not change if the router is
recycled or for any other reason.<br>
