Wow... There is some serious learning about the internet to be done here! When Randy was deploying IPv6 across the IIJ backbone, I was running around in kindergarten. I didn't even know what the internet was back then. Amazing what can happen in 26 years... Regards, Christopher Hawker On Sat, 13 Jan 2024 at 09:35, Abraham Y. Chen <aychen () avinta com> wrote:
Hi, Randy: 1) " ... dual-stack mess ... it was intended. it was the original transition plan. ": Perhaps you are too young to realize that the original IPv6 plan was not designed to be backward compatible to IPv4, and Dual-Stack was developed (through some iterations) to bridge the transition between IPv4 and IPv6? You may want to spend a few moments to read some history on this.
