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:
- 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?
- DHCPv6 or is SLAAC enough?
For each question both options seem to be possible and I’m interested in your experience
Cheers
Don’t use ULA, those are non internet routable addresses so they will never use v6 for internet things. Use the range assigned from your ISP.
SLAAC. Because Android has one ass of a dev who refuses to include DHCPv6
You can use both at the same time and it is useful to have ULA if your ISP changes your assigned prefix.
This is what I do. I haven’t seen a reason to change it as of yet.
