IPv6 is now peaking over 50% of all internet traffic globally and trending up. IPv4 is today the minority of internet traffic.

In some countries like France IPv6 over 85% of all internet traffic. In Germany over 75%. USA 57% of all traffic. India 76% of all traffic.

Not a fan of Google but they keep statistics on adoption.

    I literally just got the notifiation from Verizon today that IPV6 was now supported by their network... Ubiquiti asked me if I wanted to enable it, my response is basically not until I understand it...

    Then again, it took me 20 years to really understand IPv4, so it's likely I'm going to be decaying before I get v6. ;-)

    Have faith in yourself. I bet you could get things in a few hours with focused study if you have a deep understanding of IPv4.

    That was probably a good call, firewalling and (lack of) DHCP especially is quite different so just trying to use v4 concepts on v6 addresses/networks is almost a guaranteed bad time
