   You'll generally need a domain name for your BBS or some way to refer   
   to your BBS by a domain name and then configure DNS with an AAAA record.   
      
      
   ipv6                    IN      AAAA            2604:880:52:866:f1d0:1:124:5016   
   endofthelinebbs.com.    IN      AAAA            2604:880:52:866:f1d0:1:124:5016   
   bbs                     IN      AAAA            2604:880:52:866:f1d0:1:124:5016   
      
   I have several ipv6 hostnames setup.   
      
   You'll also need your provider to allow you to setup a f1d0:: address,   
   usually through a control panel, many will give you a /48 or /64 which   
   can both be used.
