Hi AusNOGgers,
Following our dual-stack enablement in Aug 2016, Telstra is proud the
announce the second step in our transition to IPv6 - IPv6
Single-Stack deployment on Telstra wireless.
This means shortly when you attach your mobile to Telstra.WAP APN it
will only get an Ipv6 address NO Ipv4 address.
* Basic flow *
- If Alice is connecting to a website with a Ipv6 AAAA DNS record, It
will be a pure Ipv6 connection.
- If Alice is connecting to a website with only a A DNS record, our
DNS will spoof the website address with a Well Known Prefix (WKP) so
it routes to the NAT64 gateway to Ipv4 internet.
- If Alice is connecting to a Ipv4 address literal(x.x.x.x), It may fail.
I hope this is not a naive question:
Is there a higher chance of brokenness when users choose to use other
DNS services (i.e. Cloudflare / DoH), apart from Telstra, due to the
lack of WKP in the response from those providers?
Cheers,
Peter.
