I literally just got the notifiation from Verizon today that IPV6 was now supported by their network… Ubiquiti asked me if I wanted to enable it, my response is basically not until I understand it…
Then again, it took me 20 years to really understand IPv4, so it’s likely I’m going to be decaying before I get v6. ;-)
my response is basically not until I understand it…
That was probably a good call, firewalling and (lack of) DHCP especially is quite different so just trying to use v4 concepts on v6 addresses/networks is almost a guaranteed bad time

Have faith in yourself. I bet you could get things in a few hours with focused study if you have a deep understanding of IPv4.
LOL…my ADHD has gotten much worse with age… “Focus” is a fond memory. ;-}
Ok. Then a week of passive absorbing at worst. You got it. IPv6 is more complicated but not that much more complicated. You already know IPv4.
