Why can't you use stateless autoconfig?

Because I want to control the suffix assigned to devices for firewall rules and monitoring purposes.

    Seems like the wrong layer unless your network has more than one router/gateway.

    Use MAC as the key for firewall and monitoring. Then you don't have multiple rules per device.
