Fully agree, 464XLAT is the way to go. We have tested this in many IPv6-only access deployments, non-cellular networks (cellular is well tested by T-Mobile and others, that have got it in production for years). We always have the issue of the CPEs support, but this is the same problem if you

They also say the domain needs to be in your domain search field on your end user device, meaning I think the enduser device looks up whatever default hostname, appending whatever domain name is in your client. Your authoritative DNS then returns the IP of your Apple cache. - Mike
