The stable-id is used for generating IPv6 stable private addresses with ipv6.addr-gen-mode=stable-privacy. It is also used to seed the generated cloned MAC address for ethernet.cloned-mac-address=stable and wifi.cloned-mac-address=stable. Note that also the interface name of the activating connection and a per-host secret key is included into the address generation so that the same stable-id on different hosts/devices yields different addresses. If the value is unset, an ID unique for the connection is used. Specifing a stable-id allows multiple connections to generate the same addresses. Another use is to generate IDs at runtime via dynamic substitutions. The '$' character is treated special to perform dynamic substitutions at runtime. Currently supported are &quot;${CONNECTION}&quot;, &quot;${BOOT}&quot;, &quot;${RANDOM}&quot;. These effectively create unique IDs per-connection, per-boot, or every time. Any unrecognized patterns following '$' are treated verbatim, however are reserved for future use. You are thus advised to avoid '$' or escape it as &quot;$$&quot;. For example, set it to &quot;${CONNECTION}/${BOOT}&quot; to create a unique id for this connection that changes with every reboot.

The UUID must be in the format &quot;2815492f-7e56-435e-b2e9-246bd7cdc664&quot; (ie, contains only hexadecimal characters and &quot;-&quot;)." />
