The ipv6 address you see is the so-called link-local address, and is |
| 8 |
automatically constructed by the network adapter based on its MAC |
| 9 |
address; hence, it's not "acquired" from some server, and so it's |
| 10 |
perfectly normal that, even though there are other connectivity |
| 11 |
problems, the network adapter has this kind of ipv6 address. |
