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

My ISP eventually started supporting IPV6, but only assigned /128

This is hilarious to me.

"We've got 7.9 septillion addresses to play with in each of our v6/32 LIR allocations... if we follow the standard and give each customer a whole network prefix, that caps us at 4 billion customers per LIR! Nonsense, let's just give every household a single v6 address."

It's like these people don't understand what IPv6 is for.
