About a year ago I started to discuss with GavleNet in Sweden about how they can best deploy native IPv6 for their fibre-to-the-home (FTTH) customers. GavleNet is a city network that operates in the municipalities of Gävle and Ockelbo. In this article, I discuss how we designed GavleNet's FTTH IPv6 address space.
In this article I will discuss how we use persistent DHCPv6 Prefix Delegation for GavleNet's customers.
In my previous articles, I wrote about addressing plans and how to create persistent DHCPv6 prefix delegations. We have 200 FTTH connections, but the peak we have seen is six active users! Here, I want to discuss why that is.
In October 2008 I registered kommunermedipv6.se. My main motivation was to encourage the municipalities in Sweden to enable IPv6 and to publicly show once it's done. Now, ten years later, I think my idea was a big mistake....
