Nice. In that case, you can of course use your router's global scope address in /etc/hosts or DNS. > The only IPv6 details my router shows are the LAN and WAN addresses, > and 'ip -6 route show' on this host, although it lists six addresses > bound to eth0, doesn't mention fd67. ULA support, or rather the ability to assign additional static IPv6 addresses to an interface, depends on the router's firmware. If you can make it work, https://cd34.com/rfc4193/ can help you generate a ULA prefix. ULA allows for fixed addresses, while SLAAC-based addresses expire and can contain random components, and that's why static name-to-address mappings generally use ULA. -Ralph
