Since you can have multiple addresses on an interface, you could |

your server, using a consistent address rather than the randomized |

And of course in a world where we all get a large pool of address |
12 |
space to do with what we please, you could skip the whole |
13 |
auto-configuration thing entirely and just manually assign whatever |
14 |
addresses you want. And another bonus is that there are plenty of |

funny things we can spell in hexadecimal. ;) |
