What does your IPv6 setup look like? (feddit.org)

except for nor using it at all, of course.

So I want to make my homelab IPv6 ready, because I have too much free time, i guess. There are two decisions that I'm currently unsure about:

ULA or not. Do you have local only addresses or do your clients communicate using the global IPv6 address? Does not using ULAs work without a static IP from the ISP?
DHCPv6 or is SLAAC enough?

For each question both options seem to be possible and I'm interested in your experience

Cheers

There are a few ISPs in North America that support ipv6, but many many don't. As much as I detest the recent push toward "5G Internet to the Home", it at least does increase adoption of IPv6 since (from what I understand) basically all mobile carriers are v6-only and do NAT64 for v4 support.

I don't know if that translates to the 5G-at-home offering but it wouldn't surprise me since most customers don't care what address scheme is being used as long as Netflix works.

T-Mobile doesn't even have CGNAT, it's single-stack IPv6. IPv4 gets routed via NAT64.
