In today's IPv6 Buzz episode, Ed, Scott, and Tom talk about the good, bad, and ugly of vendor support for IPv6-only. While some vendors support dual-stack deployments, things get a little more precarious when you want to turn off IPv4 entirely.

In this episode of IPv6 Buzz, Ed, Scott, and Tom talk about our DAD issues — well, our IPv6 Duplicate Address Detection (DAD) issues anyway. DAD is a feature of IPv6 that looks for duplicate IP addresses among hosts on the same segment. We discuss how it works and operational considerations.

What's the state of IPv6 in the public cloud? What support is available in which of the major providers? What are the cloud challenges of v6? How does v6 affect multi-cloud architectures? The latest episode of the IPv6 Buzz podcast examines these and other v6 questions for public cloud.

On today's IPv6 Buzz podcast we explore DHCPv6 Option 108. Option 108 basically allows a DHCP server to use IPv4 to contact a host and tell that host to disable its IPv4 stack and switch to IPv6-only. In other words, you're using IPv4 to turn off IPv4. We examine the use cases for this peculiar capability.
