Sure. In point of fact, it will work just as well as if they did the same thing with a non-homenet-conforming box, and possibly better. In some cases that means it will work; in some cases it means it will not. IOW, homenet won't make things worse. So it's hard to accept the notion that, in the event that IPv4 breaks in this case, IPv6 ought to break as well. Of course, since this is a non-homenet router, possibly it doesn't support IPv6 anyway. _______________________________________________ homenet mailing list homenet@ietf.org https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/homenet
