Detecting a method
| permanent address | lifetimed address | method |
|---|---|---|
| no | no | IPv4 disabled / IPv6 link-local |
| no | yes | auto |
| yes | no | manual |
| yes | yes | auto |
Notes
- IPv4 link-local can be detected as well (by an address from 169.254.0.0/16 range)
- IPv4 shared cannot be detected.
- IPv6 ignore is obsolete.
- IPv6 link-local is an equivalent to IPv4 disabled (subject to change).
- IPv6 DHCP method is still broken and cannot be distinguished from IPv6 auto.
