Also, the stable-id can contain placeholders that are substituted dynamically and deterministically depending on the context. 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. It is also used to derive the DHCP client identifier with ipv4.dhcp-client-id=stable, the DHCPv6 DUID with ipv6.dhcp-duid=stable-[llt,ll,uuid] and the DHCP IAID with ipv4.iaid=stable and ipv6.iaid=stable. Note that depending on the context where it is used, other parameters are also seeded into the generation algorithm. For example, a per-host key is commonly also included, so that different systems end up generating different IDs. Or with ipv6.addr-gen-mode=stable-privacy, also the device's name is included, so that different interfaces yield different addresses. The per-host key is the identity of your machine and stored in /var/lib/NetworkManager/secret_key. See NetworkManager(8) manual about the secret-key and the host identity. The '$' character is treated special to perform dynamic substitutions at activation time. Currently, supported are \"${CONNECTION}\", \"${DEVICE}\", \"${MAC}\", \"${NETWORK_SSID}\", \"${BOOT}\", \"${RANDOM}\". These effectively create unique IDs per-connection, per-device, per-SSID, per-boot, or every time. The \"${CONNECTION}\" uses the profile's connection.uuid, the \"${DEVICE}\" uses the interface name of the device and \"${MAC}\" the permanent MAC address of the device. \"${NETWORK_SSID}\" uses the SSID for Wi-Fi networks and falls back to \"${CONNECTION}\" on other networks. Any unrecognized patterns following '$' are treated verbatim, however are reserved for future use. You are thus advised to avoid '$' or escape it as \"$$\". For example, set it to \"${CONNECTION}-${BOOT}-${DEVICE}\" to create a unique id for this connection that changes with every reboot and differs depending on the interface where the profile activates. If the value is unset, a global connection default is consulted. If the value is still unset, the default is \"default${CONNECTION}\" go generate an ID unique per connection profile.")

Also, the stable-id can contain placeholders that are substituted dynamically and deterministically depending on the context. 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. It is also used to derive the DHCP client identifier with ipv4.dhcp-client-id=stable, the DHCPv6 DUID with ipv6.dhcp-duid=stable-[llt,ll,uuid] and the DHCP IAID with ipv4.iaid=stable and ipv6.iaid=stable. Note that depending on the context where it is used, other parameters are also seeded into the generation algorithm. For example, a per-host key is commonly also included, so that different systems end up generating different IDs. Or with ipv6.addr-gen-mode=stable-privacy, also the device's name is included, so that different interfaces yield different addresses. The per-host key is the identity of your machine and stored in /var/lib/NetworkManager/secret_key. See NetworkManager(8) manual about the secret-key and the host identity. The '$' character is treated special to perform dynamic substitutions at activation time. Currently, supported are \"${CONNECTION}\", \"${DEVICE}\", \"${MAC}\", \"${NETWORK_SSID}\", \"${BOOT}\", \"${RANDOM}\". These effectively create unique IDs per-connection, per-device, per-SSID, per-boot, or every time. The \"${CONNECTION}\" uses the profile's connection.uuid, the \"${DEVICE}\" uses the interface name of the device and \"${MAC}\" the permanent MAC address of the device. \"${NETWORK_SSID}\" uses the SSID for Wi-Fi networks and falls back to \"${CONNECTION}\" on other networks. Any unrecognized patterns following '$' are treated verbatim, however are reserved for future use. You are thus advised to avoid '$' or escape it as \"$$\".

Currently, supported are &quot;${CONNECTION}&quot;, &quot;${DEVICE}&quot;, &quot;${MAC}&quot;, &quot;${NETWORK_SSID}&quot;, &quot;${BOOT}&quot;, &quot;${RANDOM}&quot;. These effectively create unique IDs per-connection, per-device, per-SSID, per-boot, or every time. The &quot;${CONNECTION}&quot; uses the profile&apos;s connection.uuid, the &quot;${DEVICE}&quot; uses the interface name of the device and &quot;${MAC}&quot; the permanent MAC address of the device. &quot;${NETWORK_SSID}&quot; uses the SSID for Wi-Fi networks and falls back to &quot;${CONNECTION}&quot; on other networks. Any unrecognized patterns following &apos;$&apos; are treated verbatim, however are reserved for future use. You are thus advised to avoid &apos;$&apos; or escape it as &quot;$$&quot;. For example, set it to &quot;${CONNECTION}-${BOOT}-${DEVICE}&quot; to create a unique id for this connection that changes with every reboot and differs depending on the interface where the profile activates. If the value is unset, a global connection default is consulted. If the value is still unset, the default is &quot;default${CONNECTION}&quot; go generate an ID unique per connection profile."
