Closed 3hhh closed 1 year ago
The only thing that needs to change in this commit is the use ipv6.ip6-privacy. 3hhh and I are getting different results for the default value of ipv6.addr-gen-mode for WiFi connections but I think we will get the same value once 3hhh deletes the connection profile and then reconnects to the network.
If anyone else can confirm that debian-11 uses ipv6.addr-gen-mode = stable-privacy by default that would help. Just connect to network and run nmcli -f 'ipv6.addr-gen-mode' c show $WIFI_SSD in sys-net.
Thank you @feffiboujike and @3hhh
@3hhh : I just notice github complains about conflicts (there's some text in the current version that isn't in your change or vice-versa), maybe you've made your changes on an old version and/or forgot to commit some of your changes ? I'm not sure that you can see github's conflict notification (it doesn't show up when not logged in) - if not here are the issues:

The following example enables Wifi and Ethernet MAC address randomization while scanning (not connected), and uses a randomly generated but persistent MAC address for each individual Wifi and Ethernet connection profile.
It was inspired by the [official NetworkManager example](https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/NetworkManager/NetworkManager/-/blob/main/examples/nm-conf.d/30-anon.conf).

Unfortunately `NetworkManager` currently doesn't provide an option to disable that leak globally ([NetworkManager bug 584](https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/NetworkManager/NetworkManager/-/issues/584)).

I could try to resolve them via github's interface but I don't know if the changes were made on purpose...
No worries, after the discussion at https://forum.qubes-os.org/t/anonymizing-mac-address-documentation-clarification/14731/4 I'll have to redo it anyway.
See the commits for the details.
