[nznog] Re: IPv6 status?

13 Jul 2022

      As a small ISP, my question is, what benefit do I get by adding IPv6? I
have enough IPv4 addresses for all my clients and although I get the
occasional client asking when we'll make IPv6 available, when I ask them
why they want it, the answer is mostly something that sounds like "because
IPv6"

If that anecdote is true, they're doing something wrong. What I hear is
there is no performance impact in general, with some reports of bulk data
moving faster with IPv6 (probably due to some kind of MTU issue).

Anecdotally, I’m hearing that some smaller ISPs don’t run IPv6 on their
networks because it kills performance for their customers.
Doesn’t seem like the right way to fix the issue, but small budgets etc.

possible to get IPv6 - Starlink did for a few months initially, but then it
disappeared when they moved to their NZ routed ranges :(
