The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen has a fantastic soundtrack. Can really push a system to its limits.

Another thing that makes no sense is if my ISP provided prefix changes -which it will- this affects the IP addressing on my local network. Ain't noboby got time for that if you're managing a company or having anything other than a flat home network with every device equal.

IPv6 is just people shouting NAT BAD, but frankly having separate address ranges inside and outside a house is a feature. A really really useful feature. Having every device have a public IP6 address I'd an anti-featute.

On my local network I want governance over my devices. I want specific firewall rules per device, so I can, for instance, block YouTube only on the kids devices. I want this to be centrally managed, so configured on my opnsense router. I want all devices to use IP6. Unfortunately none of this is possible.

To setup firewall rules I need DHCPv6, not SLAAC so my IPs on my local network that I manage are well known and fixed. Android devices don't support DHCPv6. And the designers of IP6 were daft enough to set the priority of IPv4 above that of their new protocol. So basically if you have any IPv4 addresses on a device, they'll be preferred by basically all operating systems - because that's what the spec says. So you can't run dual stack in a meaningful way.

TL;DR: IPv6 on a local network has not been thought through at all even though it's incredibly old, it's really immature.

I've lived in 14 different houses. I can't remember any of the moves being particularly bad. Hard work, yes. Have had a couple of sofas not get through doors. Worst related thing was moving into first unfurnished place and assembling the new wooden bed on day 1 with a manual screwdriver that wrecked my hands and left me exhausted. Next day I bought an electric screwdriver and it's remained one of my top purchases of all time.

It's nothing to do with static assignment of a prefix from my ISP, I have that. It's to do with static assignment of IP addresses within my own house! Use DHCP and android will not use it; use SLAAC and I have no control over IP addresses and therefore cannot set up sensible firewall rules per device.

You can run proxmox in a VM and have it run VMs to try it out. It also works on standard desktop hardware which is what I running it on.
