Easy done. :)

I forgot to mention the other end of the tunnel is on an IPv6 capable (native) network too. :)

It's also possible that IPv4 may remain a niche protocol on isolated networks (with 4in6 links between as needed) indefinitely. Similar to how IPX was in the mid-late 90s for gaming, where it was carried over IP using software like Kali to enable LAN games to work over the Internet, IIRC. Back then, if a non Netware network was full of IPX packets, then at least a few people were gaming. :)

Theoretically, I also have a /24 that can be reached over the Internet. It's part of the AMPRnet 44.x allocation and is used on my VPX to provide online services for amateur radio. Mostly Echolink proxies and conferences (which consume close to 200 IPs currently). My VPS provider routes the /24 for me over BGP.
Yeah, I am an unusual hobbyist. :)
... See if you can guess which drink will make me love you. === MultiMail/Win v0.51 --- SBBSecho 3.03-Linux * Origin: Freeway BBS Bendigo,Australia freeway.apana.org.au (3:633/410)
