Great. Now I have to go upgrade every g** d*** device in the network to support yet another alteration to the standards.

The standards orgs shot us all in the foot by not including an RA option in DHCPv6 from day one.

It turns out to be a mark-up of over 200x their annual cost (and they charge that per month) -- so it's a significant income stream. (how many people are buying, they aren't saying.)

Verizon hits me up for something like an extra $20/month to get a static IPv4 address for my Fios service, plus I had to buy a business service to get it. Worse than the mark-up on wine at a nice restaurant ;)
