Wasting bunch of time reducing the public IPv4 usage on AWS for a client to reduce recurring monthly costs (AWS charges by the hour for IPv4s)
There are things AWS doesn’t even support that would help, like giving an RDS instance a public IPv6 without public IPv4. It's dual-stack or die! Please […]

Looks like a good IPv6 day on campus today.
As is the case most days, IPv6 traffic continues to be more than double the IPv4 traffic.
In this graph of the past 24 hours, the lighter blue is incoming traffic over IPv6 and the darker blue is incoming IPv4 traffic.

Oh, great. Looks like the SSL Certificate for cdn.redhat.com is having issues today.
That's going to make installing updates a bit more difficult.

Having a 3D printer can be so handy at times.
I was in need of some disk brake caliper spacers for my MTB so if I accidentally squeezed my brakes when the wheel was not in the bike, it would not mess up the brakes.

The Internet needs to move over (from IPv4) to IPv6.
If for nothing else, to make it easier to get a static IP address.
(Although there are some other nice features of IPv6.)

Was just messing around with testing SentinalOne at work and noticed a lack of parity between #IPv4 and #ipv6
Email alerts contain only the ipv4 address of the host that generated the alert.
IPv6 only hosts can't send alerts to SentinalOne
No IPv6 host info in the web console?
Not good […]

Just sat through a SIEM demo today where the software was full of AI. All I could think about each time the presenter mentioned AI was all the ways an attacker could potentially create a prompt injection attack to get the SIEM to completely hose an entire company. Ugh.

Happy to be involved with this one. Should also mention the speed with which this published. 14 months from a dinner conversation to a published document is pretty wild (12 months in data tracker time!) https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/rfc9872/
RFC 9872: Recommendations for Discovering IPv6 Prefix Used for IPv6 Address Synthesis
On networks providing IPv4-IPv6 translation (RFC 7915), hosts and other endpoints need to know the IPv6 prefix(es) used for translation (the NAT64 prefix (RFC 6052)). This document provides guidelines for NAT64 prefix discovery, specifically recommending obtaining the NAT64 prefix from the Router Advertisement option (RFC 8781) when available.

I think Cloudflare radar is telling me that web browsers on our network are using #ipv6 90% of the time? Or is it that 90% of our clients have working IPv6 networking? Either way, I'd rather it was closer to 100%. :)
