An anectode about this, maybe out of date, maybe not. I was helping my
friend who likes Apple things connect to the local community
network. He wanted to use an Airport as his home gateway rather than
the router that we normally use. Turns out these things can *only* do
IPv6 with tunnels and cannot do IPv6 on PPPoE. Go figure. So there is
not exactly a clear path to native IPv6 for your lab this way.
