Creating beck32 address on bitcoin core automatically generate another address on lightning network

0

my lightning network backend is bitcoind. Interesting when I execute getnewaddress label bech32 another bech32 address is automatically generated. I found it because at the lightning network console pops up a new line [INF] RPCS: [newaddress] addr=xxxxx and it is not the same as the address at bitcoind.

It doesn't happen if I created with another wallet type such as legacy wallet.

So my questions are 1. why another address? what is the purpose of this automative generation? 2. what is the link between these two addresses? does deposit at one affect another in a descrete way?
