@fosdem as is tradition: the photo from the closing talk of #FOSDEM

Of note:
* Next year, the default network of #FOSDEM will be #IPv6 only. At lot of things will break, and this is intentional
* FOSDEM will become political. If you are in policy, politics, a position of power: reach out to us at policy@fosdem.org

Room Janson with a lot of people

Github's lack of #ipv6 is really apparent at #FOSDEM - thousands of hackers trying to use it via NAT64 means api.github.com gets blocked/ratelimited from the NAT IP

good job npm

AIllowed IP ranges (optional) Must be valid CIDR notation. Input Range 1: [text input] 185.15.56.0/25 Input Range 2: [text input] 2a02:ec80:a000::/56 [warning icon, red background] One or more fields contains an invalid CIDR entry.

i have inet6 autoconf in my /etc/hostname.iwm0 and from time to time i get this in my logs (endless repetition):

Jan 29 07:48:56 s0 /bsd: iwm0: DAD detected duplicate IPv6 address [redacted] NS in/out=1/1, NA in=0
Jan 29 07:48:56 s0 /bsd: iwm0: DAD complete for [redacted] - duplicate found
Jan 29 07:48:56 s0 /bsd: iwm0: manual intervention required

when this happens ipv6 stops working. a restart of my laptop most of the times solves this. is this something for the mailing list? something to do with my local network?

#openbsd #ipv6

Assume two machines in the same network each have a link-local address (LLA) and a unique-local address (ULA). They could talk to each other with either address. Is there some kind of prioritizing the one over the other, e.g. always use LLA if available else use ULA?

#ipv6 #networking

A hard to swallow pill for some folks out here, but the main issue with #IPv6 is this:

The "thinking about" meme. On the left, happy: "Thinking about IPv6 implementation" - On the right, crying: "Actually having to implement IPv6 for anything that isn't the most basic setup"
