   Everyone dealing with firewalls/ACLs should know that RFC or its existence at   
   least. Its the essential rule set for making IPv6 work.

   The vendors of the small plastic routers are trying to motivate you to buy a   
   new box every two years. A lot of those plastic boxes supporting IPv6 still   
   don't have a proper IPv6 firewall. The sad thing is that the box' firmware   
   (typically linux) has full IPv6 support, just the web UI lacks the option for   
   configuring all the IPv6 goodness.

   Nearly all open source firewalls/routers are far ahead of commercial plastic   
   boxes.
