Re: Verison IPv6 -- I want to stick with IPv4 (was Re: ipv6: static ipv6 address with dynamic network address possible?)

Similarly, it is already possible to have your local network be

networks might go this way as v6 eclipses v4, but that is very far
in the future.


I'm most of the way to this setup now. But I use a squid proxy for the 6
to 4 conversion for most things.

I do recall a weird chrome (or possibly firefox) bug where it wouldn't
accept an ipv6 proxy address without a default route (although the
default route didn't actually have to point at anything)

Quirks like that can sometimes make ipv6 frustrating, but it's more that
we accept and know the ipv4 quirks.
