This is a very poor straw man. In IPv6 world you wouldn't get 2001::/112, you'd get 2001:1234:5678:90ab::/48. So your building might actually be at best something like 2001:1234:56…

Yes, IPv6-first is definitely the way to do it. Just be careful not to run into Github's issue ( https://www.githubstatus.com/incidents/5y8b8lsqbbyq ) or Google's issue ( https://i…

I didn't have IPv6 available from the sole (land-based) ISP who offered service at my last house, Altice USA (Suddenlink/Optimum). I moved away about 13 months ago. (Worse yet thei…

I think there's an extra, important, oft-missed part implicit in your scenarios: 1) make everything the same, the good and the bad, just extend the address space, and replace all t…
