Hello,

Can you please clarify this bug report? Are you saying that if you try to assign a MAC address to a Wireguard tunnel interface, the IPv6 Link Local address is not present?

We likely should hide the ability to assign a MAC address to a WG interface at all, as I don't see a reason that would ever be necessary.
