I don't think it'll ever make money, but I think it will reduce costs. CGNAT boxes cost money, operating them costs money, dealing with the support fallout from them costs money.

There aren't enough folk thinking along these lines, so thank you for writing it. Every flow you can route exclusively with 6, is one flow you aren't having to pay extra for so it can sit in a CGNAT state table. ... And that's before they call you, as Tim also rightly points out. -- Tom
