Re:By installing NAT, MIT stifles innovation by anderskaseorg on Monday June 26, 2017 @02:44PM (#14639195)
Yes, yes, it’s been three months since the provost triumphantly announced that IPv6 will finally be coming to the campus network, and communication about IPv6 on campus goes back much longer than that, but we have yet to see it in a single building (beyond the buildings where students have set up their own tunnels, and who knows if those will even work with the new network). Meanwhile, the NAT was deployed in twelve buildings with same-day notice and no prior communication, leaving some student groups with unreachable servers. If this had anything to do with pushing innovation, don’t you think the priorities and communication pattern would have been a bit different?
