The time has come to talk about something uncomfortable to a lot of you. You’ve been using legacy methods for far too long. It’s time to move to IPv6. But, of course, there’s a lot more to IPv6 than ‘just’ switching everything over. A lot of systems in the world still haven’t adopted it after nearly 25 years, and although software support is virtually a requirement these days, that doesn’t mean it’s widely enabled. | |
