Feature Request: RFC 8781 or PREF64 in router advertisements

Fri Oct 21, 2022 4:16 am

This option is beginning to be supported on a lot of OS but mikrotik still doesn’t support it. Radvd has it merged, Frrouting is on process to be merged and even openwrt has a pull request for it to be merged.

i believe this shouldn’t wait until ROS 8 :)

There is a nice article here about why this is beneficial:
https://labs.ripe.net/author/ondrej_cal ... -networks/

In particular: recent macOS will activate its built-in CLAT if it gets a DHCP 108 ("Pv6-only Preferred") *and* the router advertisement contains a PREF64. This allows connectivity to the IPv4 Internet on an IPv6-only network via NAT64, without needing DNS64.
