IPB186: An Inside Look at RFC 9872 for Discovering v6 Prefixes
RFC 9872 makes recommendations for NAT64 prefix discovery for hosts supporting v4-to-v6 translation. Co-host Nick Buralgio is a co-author of this RFC, so we’re taking the opportunity to talk about it in detail. We discuss the problems RFC 9872 is addressing and why a new RFC was needed for operational guidance, not necessarily defining a... Read more »

Is the OS getting confused about which stack and which order of interfaces to request services? Is the weird behavior being... Read more »
