If your enterprise depends on DHCPv6 for a variety of NAC or other =
related
things, then it=E2=80=99s not so absurd to prohibit a platform that =
fails to support it.
OTOH, Apple refuses to implement 464Xlat, which (at least so far) means
no IPv6 on T-Mo due to opposing brain damage on the T-Mo side.
