Being able to segment each of your services (mysql, web, etc) to a different IP as each machine should be getting a /56 or /64 at the very least.

- discodave 10y agoBut can't you do that with ports?
- tomschlick 10y agoyou can. but this can open up way more flexibility on how you run those services. think about something like docker where each app may be running web/db/queues/mail/etc. with v6 each docker app/service could have its own ip so you can run on the default ports. you could even create a subnet per app to segment them off easily.
- StreamBright 10y agoI am not sure this is a good example. I really like to have 1 IP / server, or maximum two when it has to live in two networks.
