Android devices show up at relatively untrusted wifi networks. I can see the problem there. Or are you saying the these days enterprises are 100% cloud based, and the only networks they have left are wifi? In many cases untrusted devices only communicate with the internal network over a VPN. In that case, the local access protocol doesn't matter much. The VPN can hand out IPv6 address even if the host is IPv4-only. In any case, Atlas probes run a stripped down version of OpenWRT. It may help if somebody can figure out which OpenWRT packages need to be added to enable DHCPv6. -- ripe-atlas mailing list ripe-atlas@ripe.net https://lists.ripe.net/mailman/listinfo/ripe-atlas

Enterprises love DHCPv6 (because, among others, reverse DNS, some amount of control, and no pesky privacy addresses). That you do not see more of it is mostly Android's fault - because enterprises get told "it will not work with half the mobile devices", so they go and postpone IPv6 deployment instead (in places where the control bit is strictly required)...

A random question about the state of the art in this area. Does OpenWRT out of the box support DHVPv6? Did you ever try that? If it does, it may help the Atlas team to just add the relevant OpenWRT packages. It seems that networks that support only DHCPv6 IN_NA for IPv6 are quite rare. -- ripe-atlas mailing list ripe-atlas@ripe.net https://lists.ripe.net/mailman/listinfo/ripe-atlas

After quite a bit of fruitless debugging "why does my Atlas probe not succeed in getting a DHCPv6 IA_NA lease?" today, google showed this old thread from 2019. Dear RIPE Atlas folks, why doesn't Atlas probes support DHCPv6 in 2023? All the stubborn reasons given why Android can't support DHCPv6 do not apply, and for the environment my v4 probe is running in, DHCPv6 is what we use - so it's DHCPv6 or no v6...
