> Abstract:
>    Stateless Address Autoconfiguration (SLAAC) for IPv6 typically
>    results in hosts configuring one or more stable addresses composed of
>    a network prefix advertised by a local router, and an Interface
>    Identifier that typically embeds a hardware address (e.g., an IEEE
>    LAN MAC address).  The security and privacy implications of embedding
>    hardware addresses in the Interface Identifier have been known and
>    understood for some time now, and some popular IPv6 implementations
>    have already deviated from such scheme to mitigate these issues.
>    This document deprecates the use of hardware addresses in IPv6
>    Interface Identifiers, and recommends the use of an alternative
>    scheme ([I-D.ietf-6man-stable-privacy-addresses]) for the generation
>    of IPv6 stable addresses.
