In our current implementation, we use getifaddrs
to get ipv6 address from all interfaces and hash network id with the ipv6 addresses. When we have more than one interface connected to network, this could make unnecessary changes to network id.
For example, my laptop connected via Ethernet and WiFi and the default interface is Ethernet. When I turn on/off WiFi, I can see that network id is changed. Actually, the network I connected is not changed, so the network id should not change.
I think we should just check the ipv6 address on default interface.
