I'll try it on my machine later. I'll also update the guide. Honestly, i didn't know this command exists. What i previously did as a workaround is to create a simple script that adds the config at every start-up. I'll adopt your method since it seems to be the best way to do it. Thanks.

It did lead me in the correct direction for the final solution however. The 'man' page for 'ifconfig' lead me to 'networksetup' and this made it permanent between boots (adjusted to your sample addresses): $ sudo networksetup -setv6manual "Ethernet" 2100:abcd:4321::2 48 2100:abcd:4321::1 This didn’t solve it for me between boots, however it did work until I rebooted.
