Yeah, I guess my router just decided on an ULA prefix on its own. Thank you for providing the right terminology and explaining how a host gets these addresses.
I don’t think unique local addresses require manual configuration. On linux at least, I get an
fe80::
address derived from the interface’s MAC address even if there it can’t find any router. If the host receives a router advertisement, it will add a local address (the same suffix as the fe80 but with afd8b:something::/64)
and the “internet”2003::
.I’m not an expert and this may be just the configuration of my router, but all my linux installs automatically got these three addresses without manual configuration or issues.
