The version field in an IP header is only four bits. We are already at 8. Good grief! We will run out of IP versions in the foreseeable future! #IPv4 #IPv6 #IPv8

@litchralee_v6 yeah, i think it must be something like that. for now i'm going to leave it with my hacky OUTPUT REJECT rule and come back to this later :D thanks for the help!

@lw Happy to help!Works the same on my OpenBSD 7.8 server.

@Larvitz OT: Patches accepted for IPv6 "longer loopback": https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-kumari-ipv6-loopback/

@subnetspider And there is of course always https://glauca.digital/ :D

The BGP article is also available on the Geminispace for those who prefer the lightweight web:gemini://gemini.hofstede.it/bgp_routing_asn_freebsd.gmiNo tracking, no JavaScript, just text. Accessible via clients like Lagrange or Amfora.#gemini #smallweb #FreeBSD #geminispace

@Larvitz very polished blog post. Thank you for sharing!

Psssst! Don't tell anyone but more and more POPs are coming up for my next free service! It's not only for @BoxyBSD@bsd.cafe#ipv4 #ipv6 #router #routing #network #bgp #AS #BoxyBSD #opensource #net #netops

@peteriskrisjanis @cr I think it's just a matter of design-by-committee making a thing that nobody wants to use. I understand some of the reasons for the decisions that were made, but it is very complicated. (So is the pile of workarounds you have to use to make IPv4 work, admittedly.)
