In practice, the IPv4 vs IPv6 difference is that some vendors provide DHCP snooping, private VLANs and unicast flood protection in IPv4 land, which seems to provide a scalable way to build Ethernet networks with address validation---but there is nothing comparable for IPv6 right now, from any vendor.
That is not true. Check out work and reports from the IETF SAVI WG. There are actually quite a few implementations out there, being used in production. -- Mikael Abrahamsson email: swmike@swm.pp.se
