IPv6 for Luddites
Andrew (aka mcnalu) recently triggered Beni by saying that he turns off IPv6 in order to get devices working on his home network. In this show Beni educates Andrew the Luddite and explains why moving from IPv4 to IPv6 is a good idea. They also explore how IPv6 can be used in a world where ISPs and devices do not all support it and what tools, tips and tricks are available during this rather long transitional phase to the newish (like 30 years old, a blink of an eye in IT) protocol.
Relevant RFCs
- RFC 4861: Neighbor Discovery (basically the ICMP based replacement of ARP)
- RFC 4862: Stateless Address Configuration
- RFC 4941: Privacy Extension for SLAAC
- RFC 6146: NAT64
- RFC 6147: DNS64
- RFC 6877: XLAT464 (Allow your legacy software to talk to its legacy server in an IPv6 only environment)
