I have to wonder how that's going to go. With IPv4 most people were
behind NAT (which isn't a firewall but does get in the way of external
traffic). IPv6 is supposed to aid us in not needing to do NAT anymore,
so more things could be directly addressable from the outside world. A
nd understanding IPv6 addresses is more complicated.
