Dishy gets a /64

IF Dishy gets a /64 from the starlink operator then I am afraid one cant make subnets in home, because each other subnet needs a distinct /64.


and I've tested DHCPv6 on both my Firewalla and my USG. They do prefix delegation to distribute that as a /56 locally.

I am afraid it is not possible to make a /56 out of a /64 (the inverse is true).

No NAT required for IPv6 (incoming or outgoing) connections. And there doesn't appear to be any restrictions on IPv6 traffic.

This is with the round Dishy.

    Excellent incentive!

    It would be good to know whether the dishy router obtains a /56 or
    a /64
    prefix from the starlink ISP.  That is easy to find out by just
    looking
    at the packets.  This would tell whether a NAT can be avoided at
    home,
    and hence more apps made possible.

    IT would also be good to  know whether the claimed IPv6 access on
    dishy
    is via a tunnel (IPv6 in IPv6, or IPv6 in IPv4) or it is 'native' (no
    tunnel).  That will tell many things about additional latency that
    might
    be brought in by IPv6.  (we'd want less latency, not more).

    After that, one can look more at promoting IPv6.  Otherwise, IPv6
    might
    still look as a hurdle, an obstacle, additional work that is too
    little
    necessary, or might even be worse than IPv4.
