Re: Dynamic IPv6 Address?
Open a terminal and run the command: Code: networksetup -setv6off "Wi-Fi" if your on Ethernet: Code: networksetup -setv6off "Ethernet" To list all network devices the cmd is Code: networksetup -listallnetworkservices That's how i disable IPv6 on my VM running High Sierra 10.13 Final...
After you run that cmd your IPv6 will be disabled... But it will also unlock the option in System Preferences (aka settings) < Network < Unlock to make changes (lower left padlock looking thing) < Advanced < Configure IPv6 < off...
But I think if you turn IPv6 back to auto (on) and reboot you will have to enter the cmd in the terminal again... If you leave it disabled Im almost positive it remains persistent after reboot..
Ive only been testing MacOS for 2 days so if there is a better way don't jump me... (but 2 days for me is like a life time to some... i find my way around a OS quick...) Quote:

Because you also have a IPv4 at the same time... Your IPv6 might not be duplicating... But your IPv4 could be and you would never know... 100% for sure what ever marketplace your on is capturing your IPv4...
