A #SmartHome should be completely independent of any internet connection.

@jwildeboer even easier: no smart home devices at all!

@acm_redfox So no internet at home? Sure. Possible. But not very common.

@jwildeboer @acm_redfox that isn't the same thing. We don't call a PC smart because it has a WiFi card.

@LovesTha The premise of my toot was a #Smarthome with devices that use the internet. The reply was to have no connected devices at all. Which is not the same, obviously. So your reply makes even less sense, IMHO, and moves the discussion far away from the point I tried to make. @acm_redfox

Esps with #esphome work fine with #IPv6 unfortunately they still need Dual stack.
What Jan says for no need for the Internet, I have the requirement that smart home devices need to work with #ipv6only to be considered worthy to be integrated.

@jwildeboer That's also the reason why #AVM made to ULA addresses default in the LAN in the latest software update of #FritzBox

@goetz @jwildeboer interesting. I mostly have tasmota flashed and from what I saw they claimed that the WiFi blob for the esp devises doesn't do v6.
Esphome seemed too complex for me yet so I haven't looked into that yet.

@blindcoder
You need to compile #IPv6 into the 8266 manually. The online tasmota compiler does not allow for this.

@blindcoder @jwildeboer

For ESP8266 you need to add:

# user_config_override.h:
```
#ifndef USE_IPV6
#define USE_IPV6
#endif
```

# platformio.ini:
```
; -DPIO_FRAMEWORK_ARDUINO_LWIP2_HIGHER_BANDWIDTH_LOW_FLASH
-DPIO_FRAMEWORK_ARDUINO_LWIP2_IPV6_HIGHER_BANDWIDTH -DUSE_IPV6
```

This gives a GUA and LL #IPv6 addresses.
Unfortunately things like DHCPv6 or #PrivacyExtensionsforIPv6 is not available, due to #lwIP not supporting it yet.
