Just for playing I disabled auto link-local address generation, then I=20 found that "ifconfig fxp0 inet6 fec0::1 delete" worked after I added that=20 one (without alias, which was my testing reason). Then I also deleted the=20 eui64 address and wanted to reassign it. Another reason I tried to use the -eui64 option with ifconfig was because=20 my fwe0 got no inet6 address! Either the man page of ifconfig is wrong or something else, I couldn't get= =20 a working syntax with option eui64.
