There's little reason to buy a newer TV more than every 5 - 10 years, so many TVs will be stranded until (if) they have some unifying firmware. ----- Mike Hammett Intelligent Computing Solutions http://www.ics-il.com Midwest-IX http://www.midwest-ix.com ----- Original Message ----- From: "Todd Crane" <todd.crane@n5tech.com> To: "Scott Morizot" <tmorizot@gmail.com> Cc: "NANOG list" <nanog@nanog.org> Sent: Thursday, January 28, 2016 11:05:52 AM Subject: Re: Netflix NOC? VPN Mismarked? If we are still talking about Netflix issues, eventually many of the issues will sort themselves out. As more and more "smart" devices are IPv6 enabled, IPv4 only devices will become rarer and rarer. Thus the CGNAT pools will be shared by less and less accounts. Then again... we may run into the issue Apple ran into with the iPads. They made iPads such that there was no good reason to upgrade. Now 5+ years later, you have a lot of original iPads running around. Imagine the issues if EoL'ed and EoS'ed those iPads. On Thu, Jan 28, 2016 at 9:50 AM, Scott Morizot <tmorizot@gmail.com> wrote:

Do all "smart" TVs and Game consoles fully support IPv6 out of the box?
The number is not non-zero, but it's not worth talking about based on the small sample I did in 2015.
I'm curious how you conducted this sample. I happened to have set up a number of Smart TVs at home and for extended family over the past couple of years. They've all supported IPv6 out of the box. It's not a 'feature' any of them listed on their feature list. It was just part of their networking. My home is IPv6 enabled and my TVs are running it just fine.
My personal, purely anecdotal experience is limited to Sony, Samsung, and LG smart TVs. But that's a much larger than simply 'non-zero' segment of the smart TV market. And smart TVs as a category aren't all that old.
Which brands are the ones that aren't supporting IPv6?
