Networking equipment maker #Unifi is late to the #IPv6 game.

The first thing I come across is, that they build #NAT66 support which is neither standardized nor needed.

Why?

@goetz if you want ISP failover (with different prefixes) I guess it is more or less the only way?

Or maybe/probably they try to translate rfc1918 thinking into IPv6 with ula…ugh

@monotux There are better ways to enable multi WAN #IPv6
Even for "cheap" ISP subscriptions without BGP.
But as everyone is applying the #IPv4 thinking to #IPv6 this is not well implemented yet.
