Update on Frontier IPv6

I made this post 3 months ago: https://sh.itjust.works/post/50242033

@stevetech@aussie.zone was super helpful in checking that my Mikrotik configuration was set up correctly. There's a mess of IPv6 information out there for Mikrotik and it's confusing for a mid-nerd like myself.

Anyway, I checked the other day and boom, I had a prefix assigned by my ISP (Frontier).

Unfortunately Frontier has decided to give out /64 prefixes. The downside to that is you can't use SLAAC inside your LAN to do subnetting (guest networks, VLANs, etc).

So my next step is to learn about DHCPv6 to manage things inside my LAN.

There are comments on other forums that are hopeful that since Verizon bought Frontier, they'll eventually switch to handing out /56 prefixes.
