Isn't it awesome that Ubuntu wants dynamic addresses on servers? :) They have been told about that problem by many people already, unfortunately, they claim to know better... But, check your 'sysctl -a | net.ipv6.conf' you might find some knobs there. Next to that, check systemd settings as that thing wants to take over the kernel and thus ignores those settings and comes up with it's own... Greets, Jeroen
