5 I can't really tell, based on what you posted. Is there an IPv6 Router
6 Advertisment service running, either on your router or another machine
7 in your local network?

9 Here is some data from the Gentoo machine I am currently working on. It
10 is hosted in a data center and uses a /64 subnet. I obfuscated the IP
11 addresses, but I'm sure you get the gist:
12
13 # cat /etc/conf.d/net
14 dns_domain_lo="example.com"
15 modules="iproute2"
16 config_enp0s31f6="99.88.77.50/26
17 2a01:11:22:33::44/64"
18 routes_enp0s31f6="default via 99.88.77.1
19 default via fe80::1"
20
21 # route -6n
22 Kernel IPv6 routing table
23 Destination Next Hop Flag Met Ref Use If
24 ::1/128 :: Un 0 11 0 lo
25 2a01:11:22:33::44/128 :: Un 0 10 0 enp0s31f6
26 2a01:11:22:33::/64 :: U 256 2 0 enp0s31f6

30 ::/0 fe80::1 UG 3 9 0 enp0s31f6

38 In my home network, my FRITZ!Box router assigns both a ULA and a global
39 scope address to each client, without any manual configuration on the
40 clients. The optional ULA assignment means that, should my uplink
41 connection die, the local clients can still talk to each other.
