I've solved 'network funnies' a few times in small companies by making
sure IPv6 is working. You'd be surprised how many times 'x doesn't
work' has been purely caused by the 'consumer' router running out of go
at a few thousand sessions.
And I was surprised just how many sessions your corporate PC user just
has running all the time. And quadruple zillion this is you have loads
of people watching TV. Or have a voip call centre.
So in the sceneiro where somebody pops in with (say) a PBX to test which
boots up and network (and port) scans a few thousand IPs to try and
discover voip phones to configure on the network, which burns IPv4 ports
in the nat. Well, because facebook and google still work, the
'internet' isn't down.
I'm also just trying to work out in my head also whether you could make
something 464xlat style which avoids double nat where you own the CPE.
