What does your IPv6 setup look like? (feddit.org)

except for nor using it at all, of course.

So I want to make my homelab IPv6 ready, because I have too much free time, i guess. There are two decisions that I'm currently unsure about:

  1. ULA or not. Do you have local only addresses or do your clients communicate using the global IPv6 address? Does not using ULAs work without a static IP from the ISP?
  2. DHCPv6 or is SLAAC enough?

For each question both options seem to be possible and I'm interested in your experience

Cheers

I use ULA for my WireGuard tunnels, otherwise it's all public IPv6 (mostly lightly firewalled).

I'm fine with SLAAC, even for servers. I just manually update my DNS with the server addresses when I set them up.

    For me, every subnet (except internal only ones) have a global IPv6 prefix, including my Wireguard tunnels. I've got a mix of statically assigned and SLAAC. I think I've setup DHCPv6 too but it either doesn't work or nothing uses it.
