You actually get an IPv6 VPN with a /48 for free to be able to access your VM. And the whole IPv6 Internet as well.
Good point. And that is exactly what we did. The real break even number is a bit higher (21ksomething) so we rounded down. We don't really have a margin of 50%...
Sorry for asking - but who is CC?
The infamous ColoCrossing; those who own this site ;-)
In that case, I should probably reach out...
Well each LAN (/64) is already the entire IPv4 address space.. squared.
Default business/residential v6 allocation is between a /56 and a /48, and some services online are banning/blocking IPs based on the /48 - so giving a bigger block to a VM/dedi/etc isn't the craziest idea.
The provider offering this appears to have 2x /29s announced from RIPE, which is about 1 million /48s - so they're not running out of space anytime soon handing out bigger blocks to customers.
Ooops, I think I have to correct something here:
Why? Because this is how IPv6 is designed: You have "1 network" for running stuff on a VPS, whereas you might want to separate things in your office with the IPv6 VPN and then you need multiple networks - so you split the /48.
In the next version of our infrastructure, we will also offer layer 2 networks, so that you can use "whatever you want" between your own VPS. Including your own IPv4, your own IPv6 or even IPX.
Huh? BT is a leader in the UK for V6 in retail Internet. We see quite a lot of traffic over V6 with them?
Well, is IPv6 the black thing or Friday is? I think "IPv6 Black Friday" is correct.
Or Black Friday IPv6. But don't both of them sound strange compared to "Black IPv6 Friday", don't they?
Probably selected areas of UK are IPv6 enabled, not in my area as I do have account with BT and still using IPv4. I know that EE mobile services are IPv6 enabled.
Same for me in the uk ipv6 is not very frequently used. I use virgin media and they haven’t got ipv6 yet and o2 as mobile network and they also don’t use ipv6 yet and I think they’re far off. For me ipv6 hosting isn’t much use to me or some people in the uk due to it not being fully rolled out yet. Might be different in over country’s but uk hasn’t got that far yet lol.
Do you have a new box? Last time I spoke with the lovely people of BT let year I was told they enabled it for all Customers with compatible routers.
No, that's my point. Out of three options, you went with the wrong one.
My own box fully support IPv6. I have spoke to BT and the answer is still negative, exactly the same as availability of ultrafast fibre in my area.
How would you do it in German? Not to be a wiseass, but an offer from PHP Friends carried a nice tag and the conversation somehow did not diverge to the semantics
Since the basic notion of Black Friday is expressed by "Black Friday", any modification of the basic notion would do best to keep the sequence of two words "Black Friday" intact. For example:
Following this reasoning, we would preferably have:
(The same logic applies to German.)
Does it come with free white ipv4?
Black Friday v6 (BFv6) sounds better
That would also work
Nope. Why do you need white? It is a typo in the topic.
way to expensive, for an ipv6 only vps
@cold 15 CHF / year is too expensive for /64 IPv6, 1GB RAM with 10G Storage? Plus there is a free VPN as well.
u can find for that money a better deal, lets wait for he Black Friday deals
Some IPv4 deal for more could have been better. Something that we could buy straight away.
Well I'll admit that's a unique idea. Crowdfunding a discount...
@cold Finally IPv4 + /64 IPv6 offer with dedicated vcore/thread and 60G storage [7.5 CHF / month, paid annually]
Thanks @nicoschottelius
Instant ready to sign up VMs with IPv4 support are missing.
@manish kinda confused, are you something like the LET ambassador now? Do you really want that title? I'm assuming your cold calling providers with something like:
"these cheap fooks on this shit posting forum want unsustainable deals, want to offer something? You'll hear shit about any issues regardless of the price, your ticket response will be critiqued, and most likely you'll get a bunch of scammers looking to rape your cores for illicit activities. Sound good? Also, under $7 month.
Lolz in all honesty, just saw your ego posts come up recently and have no idea your assumed role around here, quite perplexing
