FTP ssh and working on an exchange email system currently Also have streaming media through atv and EMBY to devices as for VOIP only use that if on my mobile from facetime Other than that not really a lot outside of RDP and playing with different thigns online either from home to work or vise versa.
Might setup a test ipv6 netwokr and have a play using some vm's I've got. -----Original Message----- From: 'Janina Sajka' via MacVisionaries [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Saturday, 29 April 2017 2:13 AM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: How to prefer IPv6 on the Mac OS X Sierra? Is IPv6 worth the bother? Well, that depends on what you do, of course. If all you do is browse the web and pick up email somewhere, the answer is probably no. If your home systems do voip or host any services, including just listening for ssh, there's a solid benefit. And, this benefit is magnified if more than one of your home LAN machines are hosting. My personal example is my work desk where there's a SIP handset that looks to all the world like an ordinary business phone, but is actually a computer connected by cat ethernet cable to my router. I also use a soft SIP client on my main desktop, so I have two phones right there that need to make, and more importantly recieve calls. The recieving is the benefit. On IPv4 you're writing NAT rules. With 6 you forget all about NAT. Another example ... When I turned off ssh over 4, my hack attempts dropped to zero, literally. Nowadays I only turn on ssh over 4 on my server, and then only when traveling because I can't be sure of IPv6 access where I travel. Another example ... If you want to access files on your home LAN from your mobile while you're out and about, you're going to find it far simpler and far more secure to do that over 6, and not at all over 4. So, it depends. hth Janina Simon Fogarty writes: > But is it worth while using IP v6 within your own home for instance is it > going to be any benefit to a user? > > I know in NZ IP v4 is still in major use but we're a population of 4.5 > million, > > I have thought I might change the home network to IP V6 just to have a play > but need to ensure that RDP and other related services stay active on my > servers so I don't go losing acess and connectivity. > > -----Original Message----- > From: [email protected] > [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Daniel Chavez > Sent: Thursday, 27 April 2017 11:20 PM > To: [email protected] > Subject: Re: How to prefer IPv6 on the Mac OS X Sierra? > > Good day, > As I'm a System Admin, I, too, prefer IPV6. > However, IPV6 depends on the ISP and the IP pool being pulled from. > Most ISP's still use IPV4 for backwards compatibility for older devices, > though most modem'/router combo's employe both IPV4 and IPV6 support, but > this IPV6 support usually is disabled until the ISP fully supports it. > So it's possible that what you may have done is correct, but it's an ISP > problem. > > -- > The following information is important for all members of the Mac Visionaries > list. > > If you have any questions or concerns about the running of this list, or if > you feel that a member's post is inappropriate, please contact the owners or > moderators directly rather than posting on the list itself. > > Your Mac Visionaries list moderator is Mark Taylor.
