John Gibbins commented on gogo6's group 'v6 in Australia'

John Gibbins commented on Eric Vyncke's group 'v6 Security'
"The fact that the attacker needs to be on-link is a big help for us. We have lots of subnets and the attacker would need to be on the same subnet to use this. Not much help for people who may have a large single subnet and they don't trust the…"

John Gibbins replied to Scott Hogg's discussion 'Privacy Addressing or Not?'
"I don't like temporary addresses as they are designed to make it virtually impossible to trace a machine. We would need very sophisticated logging to keep track of who was using what temporary address at a particular time. We often get external…"
