Shortly after IPv6 was supported by Windows Server one of our departments 
configured it, possibly by mistake. They effectively isolated themselves 
from the rest of the company, including the main servers. That got rolled 
back quickly. 

Perhaps the correct thing to do would have been to make it work company 
wide but nobody is going to sign off on an expensive project to fix 
something that ain't broken -- yet.

Since my internet connection is through Verizon wireless I have both IPv4 
and IPv6 external addresses. They're transitory and while I can find out 
what they are I don't have any need to know. 

Even better, it looks like I'm in Montrose Colorado today. 

The devices on the WiFi LAN also have IPv6 addresses along with IPv4. 
However if I want to ssh, sftp, or vnc into one of them, I know and use 
the IPv4 address.
