Abstract:
   This document changes the default scheme for generating stable
   Interface Identifiers with SLAAC to that specified in RFC7217, and
   recommends against embedding link-layer addresses in IPv6 Interface
   Identifiers.  It formally updates RFC2464, RFC2467, RFC2470, RFC2491,
   RFC2492, RFC2497, RFC2590, RFC3146, RFC3572, RFC4291, RFC4338,
   RFC4391, RFC5072, and RFC5121, by removing the text in these RFCs
   that required the IPv6 Interface Identifiers to be derived from the
   underlying link-layer address, and replacing the aforementioned text
   with a pointer to this document.  Additionally, this document updates
   RFC3315 by specifying additional requirements on the generation of
   Interface Identifiers used in Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol
   version 6 (DHCPv6).  It also provides advice to system administrators
   who employ manual configuration.  This document does not change any
   existing recommendations concerning the use of temporary addresses as
   specified in RFC 4941.
