[ale] V6 question

[Greg Freemyer]

NAT was designed fundamentally as a way to multiply one IP into multiple.

That is not needed with IPv6 because you can have an IP for every hair
on your head.

So when you get a IPv6 connection, they just give you a few billion
IPs to go with it.

Not sure about DHCP.
