Exactly! Why not just connect a hub or a switch to your IPv6-enabled cable modem? No need for a router at all! Then, all of our widgets can be hanging out in the breeze with the big boyz. See my reply to John.

Can I go down to Fry's to pick up a consumer-grade bridged firewall yet?

Industrial grade gear can usually do that. There was also a recent article in the Linux Journal about rolling your own with Linux.

Or will subnets/routers still be needed to confine the scope of ARP broadcasts and for geographical port distribution?

There will be a router somewhere, either at your site or the ISPs. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
