I'd really like to understand what the requirements that are specific to v6 are that make it so much harder or bloated. Not product availability, but actual things that make it difficult to deploy. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
It's all in the nanog archives. Just the amount of grumping by network operators to finally get DHCPv6 was pretty tremendous. Basically, folks were shouting "we want it whether you think we need it or not!" Of course, that's just the start. This thread itself has a lot of the iceberg tops.
That was almost 20 years ago. Anything a little more contemporary? I know about Android's aversion to DHCPv6, but that is not a standards problem it's a vendor being a PITA. Mike
