Is anybody using only IPv6 in their home lab? I keep running into weird problems where some services use only IPv6 and are “invisible” to everyone (I’m looking at you, Java!) I end up disabling IPv6 to force everything to the same protocol, but I started wondering, “why not disable IPv4 instead?” I’d have half as many firewall rules, routes and configurations. What are the risks?

    Yes. I just feed it off the /60 my isp gives. Me and I just use my router to segregate the rest. Gotta love Mikrotik. It’s alot easier without dealing with NAT but the ip space calculations need a bit more though
