With this in mind ip-update.net/ was created.
Working PoC exists, any constructive help, improvements and ideas is appreciated.
GitHub discussions will be the preferred method.
What is required to get ISPs to realize they need to provide IPv6?
Many say "there is no demand" and ignore it. What if @DuckDuckGo, @Google, @Meta, @netflix, @firefox, @googlechrome started showing warnings about not having IPv6 support. Similar to how HTTPS got into wide use.

Does IPv4 CGNAT potentially make ISPs violate net neutrality by giving sites available over IPv6 an "unfair advantage"?
Is there anything similar, but for service providers which give unfair advantage to any particular ISP? Could that be used to argue IPv6 required?

How come @MongoDB Atlas has no IPv6 support?
IPv6 is more than old enough to drink, supported by all OSes, and hosting is even moving to IPv6 only, this makes @LearnMongo a non option.

How come "almost no" @Azure services has IPv6 enabled?
Some examples: KeyVault, Blobstorage, Servicebus, Redis.
@AzureSupport Why? WHY?

We love to joke about security via obscurity, but it's not completely without merit for #IPv6, I setup a throwaway Win 10 box in Vultr and gave it an IPv6 GUA.
There are no scanning hits on the FW externally for that box (2 weeks timeframe) which is currently open to the IPv6 Internet for RDP on that host.
I'm not sure how an attacker would ever find it tbh.
Note: Before the infosec types jump in and vehemently suggest this shouldn't be the only layer of security, i'm not suggesting this is a prod setup...only observations from a test environment.

Did I really want to read these university slides today?
It's 30 years since CIDR and 25 years since IPv6.
There are ~60 slides about IPv4 and NAT and then 6 slides about IPv6 … why can't they teach IPv6 first? 😭

So @SiteGround still claims IPv6 has anything to do with security, even tho they should know better. (Not to mention their overall missunderstandings of current IPv4 shortage)
19 Jul 2024
Hey there, the hosting infrastructure of SiteGround is based on Google Cloud. The Google Cloud Platform does support IPv6 (this is why you can see IPv6 addresses when tracerouting to us); however, currently, IPv4 is completely sufficient both as an address space and in terms of security for the needs of the hosting industry.
This is why our systems are based on and optimized for the IPv4 protocol. This is mainly due to the still-limited adoption of IPv6 and the challenges and barriers listed in the quoted article.
Of course, the world is moving towards IPv6, and eventually, all hosting companies will adopt the protocol, but for now, SiteGround systems are working smoothly and securely on IPv4.
Regarding the article, thank you for the feedback. We will review it and make the necessary improvements for accuracy.

Dear @SiteGround , could you please stop telling lies about IPv6? And also make sure that you actually have IPv6 on your services? Thanks!
eu.siteground.com/kb/ipv4-vs…
If you do have a section about disadvantages for IPv6, where is the much longer section about IPv4?

And, in regards to security, IPv6 has no more IPSec than what IPv4 does.
Is this whole page a copy paste from somewhere else, or is it written by someone that actually doesn't know what they are talking about? @SiteGround

boosting for reach/visibility: "Congratulations to #Microsoft for the bold technology leader decision to launch a privacy VPN product in 2024 with no #IPv6 support. 😑
I'm not surprised, just disappointed."

I've fully terminated employment-based model for myself and going full time as a contractor/consultant/B2B-only.
If anyone wants/needs (or knows someone who does) a network guy who's #IPv6-centric for both SP and DC networking, feel free to DM/Reach out to me!

Just visited @Tailscale s web, none of the examples on their main page even shows IPv6, question is does it even have IPv6? The docs says yes, but this is from a product created 2019 (?)
You should have defaulted to IPv6 only!

New PCAPs: 🚨
1. DHCP opt108 and PREF64 full-flow in "network services" with HTTP test
2. Some NETBIOS also there (might as well add it)
3. IPv6 RA RDNSS in "icmp" with DNS ping test

Took a few hours, but got CLAT46 working on MacOS using a mix of stateless DHCPv6, DHCPv4 option 108, IPv6 RA NAT64 prefix option, dual-stacked DNS, and "curl" to test web access. Involved to setup and evaluate, but satisfying. Will post in PCAP library soon.

Does @Microsoft still think that IPv6 should be disabled. Even tho they especially say elsewhere that it shouldn't? 🤔

@HPE @Aruba Did you really mean to use a /24 #IPv6 prefix length in your ArubaOS-CX docs? #IPv4Thinking

Windows 11 might get CLAT support, finally we can drop legacy IPv4 and go IPv6 only. (We just need this backported to windows 10 as well) @Windows
