  And IPv6 was codified in RFCs and first addresses issued in 1999 but look where we are now. I’d bet your corporate network doesn’t use IPv6 still. It’s unfortunate, but sometimes the wheels of change are slow.

    My home, work, and mobile networks are all dual stacked.

    This is a difference in kind. IPv4 live was extended with Nat and cgnat, but nothing equivalent came for snmp.

      Hey good for you, that’s awesome! My home network is also dual stacked.

      You’re right about the apples to oranges comparison, but it’s not so wildly off, because the commentary is on adoption of new standards, regardless of bolt-on “fixes.” Unauthenticated SNMP went through three revisions prior to adding authentication and encryption support.
