Hi,
Is it possible to configure OpenWRT to replace EUI-64 link-local address with manual one for one given interface?
Like it can be done on Cisco with interface level command:
ipv6 address fe80::1 link-localTopic: Manual IPv6 Link Local adress

It may not be possible to replace the EUI64 link-local address, but it's possible to have both by configuring the address in an interface. Why don't you want to use EUI64?

It is hard to remember EUI-64 address even for a few minutes, using fe80::1 will make troubleshooting/debugging less burdensome. E. g. it will be easy to see ND traffic from/to router in tcpdump output or see router address in 'ip -6 neigh' or 'ip -6 route' output.
And it is little advantage from an additional link-local address if it will not be used for RA/ND (and other traffic from link-local address).

The discussion might have continued from here.
