 6aa4fd | yeah sure, its a free country.
anyways you can use any number of VPNs to get your 6 traffic through, and I guess not provide a default gateway for ipv6. now I'm not sure how granular some of these SLAAC/dhcpv6 tools are where you can force the default gateway off | 02:41:48 |
 matthewcroughan - nix.zone | I don't have a 6 address. There is no traffic to "get through". | 02:42:09 |
| matthewcroughan - nix.zone | My ISP doesn't support ipv6, so I used 6in4 to give myself one, from hurricane electric. | 02:42:24 |
| matthewcroughan - nix.zone | So I don't know what you mean by that, I'm confused. | 02:42:36 |
| 6aa4fd | yeah, I am saying VPN into a location where you do have a 6 prefix | 02:42:57 |
| matthewcroughan - nix.zone | If I could just set up a vpn, there'd be no point in using ipv6. | 02:42:59 |
| matthewcroughan - nix.zone | ipv6 means you don't need a vpn. | 02:43:07 |
| matthewcroughan - nix.zone | If I set up a vpn, there would be absolutely no need for this 6in4 business | 02:43:24 |
| matthewcroughan - nix.zone | * If I set up a vpn, there would be absolutely no need for this 6in4 business I am doing | 02:43:26 |
| 6aa4fd | dude, your average coffee shop won't deliver your ipv6 traffic | 02:43:32 |
| 6aa4fd | maybe in the UK, not in the us | 02:43:51 |
| matthewcroughan - nix.zone | Do you know what 6in4 is though? | 02:43:55 |
| matthewcroughan - nix.zone | What control does the coffee shop have over my ipv6 traffic? | 02:44:05 |
| 6aa4fd | it is a VPN | 02:44:06 |
| matthewcroughan - nix.zone | You could try to explain these things to me, rather than assume I know :P | 02:44:30 |
| matthewcroughan - nix.zone | If there's something I don't know about 6in4 that means it's not as cool as I think it is, please tell me | 02:44:50 |
| 6aa4fd | you said you want to take your computer out to other networks and use ipv6, I'm saying you need to have ipv6 support at the specific location | 02:44:54 |
| matthewcroughan - nix.zone | that is not true with 6in4 | 02:45:10 |
| matthewcroughan - nix.zone | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/6in4 | 02:45:26 |
| 6aa4fd | yeah, because it is a tunnel, which is the same thing as a vpn | 02:45:36 |
| matthewcroughan - nix.zone | As far as I know, this tunnel is going to work in a coffee shop. | 02:45:39 |
| matthewcroughan - nix.zone | Why wouldn't it? | 02:45:45 |
| 6aa4fd | yeah of course | 02:46:08 |
| 6aa4fd | well not 100%, but there is a decent chance, it depends on the firewall of the coffee shop | 02:46:38 |
| matthewcroughan - nix.zone | It's interesting to consider that it wouldn't work either way. | 02:46:53 |
| matthewcroughan - nix.zone | What I'm saying is that I think I would want to run 6in4 on my laptop, rather than on my router. This way, whether I'm in a coffee shop or not wouldn't matter. | 02:47:32 |
| matthewcroughan - nix.zone | I want an ipv6 address, even in places where I shouldn't. | 02:48:04 |
| matthewcroughan - nix.zone | * I want an ipv6 address, even in places where I shouldn't, typically. | 02:48:08 |
| matthewcroughan - nix.zone | I guess what I want just isn't possible with the layer 2 we have now.. lol | 02:48:46 |
| matthewcroughan - nix.zone | It's just fighting against the tide to try. | 02:48:51 |
