I love #ipv6 . But some things are unworkable.
Is anyone using an IPv6 #VPN? Could you share the length of the prefix?
I'm considering submitting a patch to #Linux which would allow #ULAs to be routed automatically (set accept_ra_rt_info_max_plen to 64), and I'd like to know good reasons *not* to do that first.
Any #network subsystem maintainers on the fedi?
