Regarding fallback IPv4 address

Hi
I have 2 following ethernet profiles at
/etc/NetworkManager/system-connections on my development board.
One for dynamic ip configuration (my-eth0.connection) and other for link
local (my-ll-eth0.connection) as fallback whenever DHCP server is not
reachable.
I have connected the ethernet from the development board directly to
Windows host. And my Windows host doesn't run any DHCP server.
The test setup is the development board is rebooted every time.
Before reboot existing profiles (my-eth0, my-ll-eth0) are deleted as part
of board enterprise reset logic.
But the observation is that sometimes after reboot fallback happens to
link-local profile "my-ll-eth0.connection" and sometimes not.
Below are profiles for your references. Please let me know your inputs on
this and let me know if I am doing anything wrong.
Note: Issue is not observed in reboot without deleting profile.
