hey,
Why? What problem are you solving by changing the current behavior?
We propose to decouple DHCP from RA, view them as two different
autoconfiguration protocols. Today you can't deploy DHCP without RA and
this forces you to support/secure two protocols that mostly overlap.
Personally
hey,
4. there is no way for RAs to deploy different gateways to different hosts:
all hosts on the network must be configured in the same way.
+1 for this. We are currently using multiple default gw's (backed by
multiple VRRP groups). This is something we can't port to ipv6 and it'll
hurt as
hey,
If you use source-based/policy routing (linux ipv6 fib subtree feature)
you could segment the subnet further and let the default gateway emit
redirects if the subtree has a default gateway which is on-link for
the clients.
In case they don't react I guess this will pollute your network wit
hey,
In other words: create undefined behaviour that breaks in new and exciting
ways for every operating system (version) around.
No, it's not really different from having unexpired RAs around or
manually adding two IPs to an interface. These situations already happen
and operating systems d
hey,
Not necessarily. There are 24 port L3 switches to be had for around 500
EUR that do IPv6 wirespeed L3 routing just fine. You can even do
protocol based vlans to do one vlan per customer for IPv6 and have an
aggregate vlan for IPv4 traffic.
Forcing network design on people as a workaround
hey,
IA_*PD* has nothing to do whatsoever with this whole discussion.
Yes it does and you can't ignore that. You will use DHCPv6+IA_PD in
broadband setup and because you already have DHCP, questions arise why
not use it for default gw as well and keep it simple for everyone.
IA_PD is one
hey,
IA_PD is a red herring, because it's fully independent from everything
else, except that it happens to use the same mechanics as IA_NA -
effectively it's different enough as far as handling in devices is
concerned that it could be considered a protocol in it's own.
Unfortunately it's not
hey,
Many host operating systems network stacks expect to have exactly one
default route. (If you have more than one, which is the default?)
This is not connected to the question of how many IP addresses they have
configured on whichever many interfaces. This is the question "if I have
conflicti
hey,
If you have RA from more than one source on the cable you are much more
likely to identify that after none too long debugging if all your
IP configuration is by RA.
You'll just have bignum users calling the helpdesk to complain that
The Internet Is Broken (tm) or that they can't work.

hey,
That said: I'll document a specific issue we face in a large-ish
enterprise-style (UK University) network, which I think RA-less IPv6
might alleviate/solve.
I think it's excellent problem statement, .1x multiple supplicant mode
is widely used in enterprise networks. Typical use-case is P
hey,
So for anyone who has deployed or is planning to deploy residential IPv6, I am
curious to know which way you are going, and more importantly why you selected
that approach? My interest is primarily in IPoE, but I don't mind hearing about
PPPoE as well.
Unnumbered WAN
CPE will get /56
hey,
What were your reasons for selecting this option?
- one prefix per customer, don't need to track separate wan and PD prefixes
- hope that we can advertise default-route (pointing to virtual
link-local address) with dhcpv6 in the future and can get rid of RA on
the wan

Estonia has a VERY impressive growth approaching 5%:

I have been driving an IPv6 project in Elion (now called Estonian
Telekom) for some time now and this is the result. One of the goals I
set for myself was exactly such a
hey,
I'm afraid I don't see the supporting evidence here. From my point
of view, Google and Akamai IPv6 both work just fine.
Concur. Both work just fine from my POV and I don't see lower than usual
IPv6 traffic levels.

hey,
Some time ago, many people noticed rapid IPv6 deployment growth in
Estonia (from 0% to 5% in 4 weeks). We at 3249/Elion/Estonian Telecom
were behind this, other operators don't have any serious IPv6
deployments at the moment. We rolled out v6 to everyone (both business
and residential cu
hey,
That would be awesome.
For consumer broadband deployments, it would be nice to know
what technologies you and others have gone with for
subscriber management, e.g., DHCP vs. PPPoE, ND/RA vs. DHCP

I promised to do it and I have done it while it's still 2014 :) Check

hey,
I guess none of the users know they are using IPv6 around 75-80% of
the time internal, or 20-30% on their external traffic either:-)
Indeed. I've been spreading knowledge about our deployment to our
customers and most of them have been amazed that they had no idea :) But
they have never
hey,
This might be confusing VoLTE with VoWiFI. The latter will use IPSEC.
Correct. What probably happened is that together with activating VoLTE,
VoWIFI was also activated on the device. Makes sense as VoLTE users are
typically moved to IMS environment.

hey,
IMS 3GPP specification requires SIP integrity and confidentiality. You
may see IPsec/IPsec security association on the device when it is
communicating and/or registered with P-CSCF (uses SIP protocol).
Correct. While IPsec might be an option, all popular terminals support
SIP-TLS. Our Vo
