1. what? i thought the idea was that the v6 space be based on the legacy ip space? how would you “drop this” if that was what you were using?

2. that’s what ipv6-only w/ nat64 is for (thank goodness)

3. i’m not sure this is the flex you think it is: https://twitter.com/noipv6/status/1575662492063174656

4. okay?

5. okay

6. that people are “used to” dotted decimal ip addresses just means ppl can learn arbitrary things. there’s nothing inherently more natural about legacy ip addresses than ipv6 addresses.

7. enterprises that need/want ipv6 are deploying ipv6. source: my job

8. okay

9. this almost sounds like 6rd fwiw

=D

1. Once the world collectively moves on from v4, you stop assigning v4-mapped v6 addresses. And nothing stops you from assigning two v6 addresses to a single iface in the meantime.

3. Yeah, it shows my ipv4 only, and I have both. Do you not have a v4?

6. No, there's not, but the reality is everyone you're trying to switch over to v6 is already used to v4, and it's like herding cats.

hey, sorry i didn’t respond. i may have read the reply & gotten drunk. hard to say.

1. why would you add the extra step of using a “v4-mapped v6 address” if you’re just going to end up using regular ones?

3. if you have ipv6 but that google link shows a legacy ip address, your ipv6 connectivity is broken somehow. you’re not behind some sort of weird nat66, are you?

6. that’s getting less true with every passing year, thankfully
