I can throw a COTS d-link box with address-overloaded NAT on a connection and have reasonably effective network security and anonymity in IPv4. Achieving comparable results in the IPv6 portion of the dual stack on each of those hosts is complicated at best.Actually, it isn't particularly hard at all... Turn on privacy addressing on each of the hosts (if it isn't on by default) and then put a linux firewall in front of them with a relatively simple ip6tables configuration for outbound only.From the lack of dispute, can I infer agreement with the remainder ofmy comments wrt mitigations for the "one of my addresses doesn't work" problem and the impracticality of the document's section 4.3 and 4.4 for wide scale Ipv6 deployment?
No, merely resignation to the fact that you don't get it. Owen
