Bash ULA Generator

Generate an IPv6 Unique Local Address prefix

Alexandre de Verteuil alexandre@deverteuil.net
2017-06-20

Based on scripts from Shinsuke Suzuki and Holger Zuleger, available under the prior_art directory.

Usage

Simply run in a bash shell. You will be prompted for your physical MAC address (guessing "eth0" is no longer relevant in 2017).

Requirements

wget, ntpq

Improvements over other scripts

  • Not a CGI script
  • Computes the SHA1 hash of bytes, not their hex representation
  • Better text output
