> There is no working solution to ipv6 dual WAN failover, 30 years later... A critical design flaw that was simply ignored by the designers despite being used in almost any SME network.

One of the major issues with IPv6’s design and development is that the people who designed it do not operate networks, nor do they build networking products. They literally fly around the world to committee meetings for a living.

Critical use cases like this are missed and/or ignored because they do not fall within the committee members’ ivory tower world view.
