Re: [qubes-users] Re: Just realized one of the major disadvantages of Qubes OS...
This thread should be renamed ipv6, and there was such a thread in qubes-devel. one of the issues is what to do when moving from an ipv6 enabled network to one without. netvm can easily note the difference and adapt, but weather your bridging or natting, all the appvms wont know any better and will start trying to use the non existent ipv6. one possible solution is dns filtering. dont return records when no global address is present, but then your going down another rabbit hole.

Here in Italy (and a lot of other countries too) home routers just started distributing /64 internally, in full dual-stack mode, during this spring for the major ISPs. Public institutions are expected to be fully dual-stack connected and publicly available by the end of the year by law. I don't see any advantage in having a situation like you described - why not just full dual stack, and the devices connect to the technology they support? Apart from us qubes aficionados, any win10 pc, apple or android device, and the vast majority of linux workstation/server distros fully support dual stack configurations, and happily work preferring ipv6 when available. -- Alex -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.

A bit of thread necromancy here, but - if you're using a smartphone in the US with mobile data, there's a *very* good chance you're already using IPv6. Over 16% of traffic to Google is native IPv6: https://www.google.com/intl/en/ipv6/statistics.html And as of AUgust 2016, more than 50% of the traffic to Facebook from users on the 4 major cellular (mobile data) networks in the US was via IPv6: http://www.internetsociety.org/deploy360/blog/2016/08/facebook-akamai-pass-major-milestone-over-50-ipv6-from-us-mobile-networks/ Akamai (one of the first CDNs) has some IPv6 adoption statistics, too: https://www.akamai.com/us/en/about/our-thinking/state-of-the-internet-report/state-of-the-internet-ipv6-adoption-visualization.jsp So, IPv6 isn't quite as niche as a lot of folks in tech seem to think. My ISP started rolling it out, and while I had to do a small amount of massaging with my pfSense box to have it work properly, once it was functioning essentially the way an ISP-provided router might... essentially everything "just worked." --Geo -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.

This is fairly recent behavior. A good chunk of Amazon AWS has recently enabled IPv6. I rent (very cheap) two servers that have no public IPv4 IP addresses, only IPv6.

See thread 'Slow performance of Docker containers in > AppVMs' . lxc or xen would work for developers only on linux. one of the benefits of vagrant is that you can share work with developers on other platforms. with lxc, theres also os limitations. at work we have linux and windows in our vagrant runs. xen could get around this, though the xen back end is pretty limited. i think the best solution would be a qrexec vagrant back end, syntactically compatible with the more common backends (virtualbox,vmware etc),something i plan on looking into when get qubes running again. too many of the alt back ends (lxc, xen) have syntax thats not easily worked around, so they're really only good for that backend. an obvious drawback is the lack of nesting, but few need that. of course this would also need packer and/or vagrant mutate support. maybe qubes-lite is the better solution. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.
