This commit introduces `GetDUIDLL`, a helper function that generates a DUID-LL (Link-Layer) using the MAC address from the first available, up, and non-loopback network interface. This provides a simple and reliable way to generate a stable DUID for a DHCPv6 client or server. Signed-off-by: Angelo Failla <[email protected]>
