Further refined by searching for "first hop". I doubt the ISP gateway has any support but it's something to ask for. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Virtual_Router_Redundancy_Protocol And a related article that turned up in my search: https://packetlife.net/blog/2011/apr/18/ipv6-neighbor-discovery-high-availability/ ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org https://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
Re: [CentOS] IPv6 mailing list?
Maybe this is helpful: https://www.ietfjournal.org/ietf-support-for-ipv6-deployment/ There is a working group mailing list where you might get an answer: https://datatracker.ietf.org/wg/ipv6/about/ Seminars on IPv6 that may be of interest: www.industrynetcouncil.org/past-webinars https://industrynetcouncil.org/webinars IANA seems to manage IPv6: https://www.iana.org/assignments/ipv6-address-space/ipv6-address-space.xhtml There being no end-user IPv6 mailing list, it seems possible to set one up.
