I don't quite understand what exactly the end user has to do to have dual stack on his home connection. The ISP either provides IPv6 to you or not, there's nothing to do for you. My current ISP (BTW, one of the biggest cable providers in Europe, you can probably guess which one it is) currently provides by default an IPv6 *only* connection to the home users, even if you have IPv4-only devices in your LAN. They use the solution called DS-Lite: the modem/router they lease to you does an IPv4-over-IPv6 tunnel(!) to some point inside the ISP's network, where the packet is decapsulated, a CG-NAT is done to some public IPv4 address and the connection continues via IPv4 to the target address. IPv6 connections just pass through unchanged. -- Regards, Jaroslaw Rafa r...@rafa.eu.org -- "In a million years, when kids go to school, they're gonna know: once there was a Hushpuppy, and she lived with her daddy in the Bathtub." _______________________________________________ mailop mailing list mailop@mailop.org https://list.mailop.org/listinfo/mailop
