RE: Incorrect IPv6 link local address assigned to adapter



Hi DZ,
My understanding of your issue is that:
You had a multi-adapter NIC, and you found that the link-local IPv6
addresses are incorrect for the adapters. The same address was assigned to
the Teredo Tunneling Pseudo-Interface. You wanted to know how you could do
to have Windows generate the link-local address correctly.
If I have misunderstood, please let me know.

Per my knowledge, in most cases, Windows will configure a link-local
address for each interface automatically and we need not do additional work
for this.

For your issue, it seems that duplicate address detection failed. In this
case, you may need to manually configure the address.
Please refer to:
