Hello IPv6: a minimal tutorial for IPv4 users
IMO, IPv6 sucks for home users and labs.  Prefix delegation means your routable IP scheme could change underneath you, and firewalling connections using PD addresses is really hard (unpredictable prefixes, privacy extensions change suffixes constantly), though some routers make it easier, like Google Wifi.  I think most will end up NATing a single external IPv6 with a private IPv6 network behind it.<p>I wish IANA and friends would let home users and other smaller entities request global &#x2F;56 address blocks and force ISPs to peer&#x2F;announce (nothing crazy, just a default route).<p>EDIT: end users should be able to request static blocks from their ISPs for free, not IANA.
