A few of us want to promote use of pref64 for IPv6-only. We wrote a draft to help. Eyeballs and input from practitioners would be useful . Let’s exercise this new momentum on non-x-sites.
Discouraging use of RFC7050 for Discovery of IPv6 Prefix Used for IPv6 Address Synthesis

Is there a list of devices/software that has support already?This would be of great help in deployment, as the RFC7050 discovery has its shortcomings as devices tend to not use the local Resolver.

@goetz yeah, quite a lot supports pref64, basically every Apple device. Network hardware is sporadic. It’s coming “soon” in windows 11, if I recall
-
@goetz I believe all modern google pixels do it (not sure of non-google android, that tends to be all over the place).

@forwardingplane
Thanks, will set up a test network and observe my zoo of devices.
