Wanted to know from real setups how the clients are handling failing to
IPv4
when for example and an IPv6 AAAA dns record isn't available and the
client
has to fall back to IPv4.
As in is it all working in the IPv6 Promised land....
IPv6 only LAN/WAN ( site to site ) setups work like charm everbody knows
that.
The real *f* happens when you have deal with using anything outsite your
LAN/WAN.
And company's cant be forced to switch or support both IPv4 and IPv6.....
