I am new to using temp addresses, but it appears to be working as 
expected.

With the interface down I set use_tempaddr=2, brought the interface up 
and added my 2 static ipv6 ips, then ran rdisc6 on the interface.

This resulted in the following 

13: br0: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc noqueue state UNKNOWN
    link/ether 00:10:18:17:a0:e6 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
    inet6 2600:c00:1002:2::101/64 scope global
       valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever
    inet6 2600:c00:1002:2::102/64 scope global
       valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever
    inet6 2600:c00:1002:2:210:18ff:fe17:a0e6/64 scope global dynamic
       valid_lft 2591996sec preferred_lft 604796sec
    inet6 2600:c00:1002:2:ccd2:cf82:efb0:8dc5/64 scope global temporary dynamic
       valid_lft 604796sec preferred_lft 85796sec
    inet6 fe80::210:18ff:fe17:a0e6/64 scope link
       valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever

~# traceroute6 www.kame.net
traceroute to orange.kame.net (2001:200:dff:fff1:216:3eff:feb1:44d7) from 2600:c00:1002:2:ccd2:cf82:efb0:8dc5, 30 hops max, 16 byte packets

It correctly sourced from 2600:c00:1002:2:ccd2:cf82:efb0:8dc5.

I repeated the same steps but reset use_tempaddr=1

~# traceroute6 www.kame.net
traceroute to orange.kame.net (2001:200:dff:fff1:216:3eff:feb1:44d7) from 2600:c00:1002:2::101, 30 hops max, 16 byte packets

For which 2600:c00:1002:2::101 was my first added static ip.

In testing the above I observed that downing the interface resulted in 
all ipv6 addressing being removed.  Is this expected?  I can see 
removing the dynamic/temp addresses, but seems weird for the statics I 
added.

thanks
Jim
