I'm a IPv6 neophyte, but it seems IPv6 is a better investment of my time going forward than learning/configuring NAT workarounds.
What's really "fun" is trying to set up a VPN between 2 NAT networks that use the same subnet. People forget or choose not to remember that NAT is a hack to get around the address shortage and consider it a security feature. There's nothing wrong with the RFC1918 addresses and there are IPv6 equivalents, but NAT is the problem that breaks so many things. IPv6 even has the unique local addresses which, while not routable over the Internet, are designed to avoid the VPN address clash I mentioned above. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
