minus-square Morphit @feddit.uklinkfedilinkarrow-up1·edit-23 months ago2606:4700:4700::1111 Hmm, maybe Google is easier: 2001:4860:4860::8888 Quad9 is 2620:fe::fe or 2620:fe::9 I don’t understand why they can’t get better addresses than that. Like surely 1::1 would be valid? Edit: So IANA only control addresses 2001:: and up and there are quite a few IETF reservations within that. I don’t know why they picked such a high number to start at. Everything else seems IETF reserved with a little space allocated for special purposes (link-local, multicast, etc.).
