an IPv6 capable system. No way is that going to happen till there are
$50 IPv6 plotters on EBay.
Sorry, but that's a red herring.
You're speaking about IPv4 decommissioning, not IPv6 implementation.
Implementing IPv6 will do nothing to your local plotter.Your computer
will keep addressing IPv4 to it.
Nothing stops you from always running dual stack at home, with your IPv4
behind your NAT/PAT.
Have you tried implementing IPv6 at home?
Kind regards,
