That is information about the topology.
- CaliforniaKarl 4y agoIt's fairly limited, without a lot of time and effort, or information from inside the network. I assume you're not acting as an AS, doing BGP, etc; and that you're just getting an IP allocation from a single ISP. In that case, you're probably getting an entire IPv6 subnet (like a /48) allocated to you. Ideally, you make the entire subnet available to your systems. Assuming you block unsolicited packets (that is, packets not related to existing connections/streams) at your border (the connection to your ISP), then outsiders won't be able to use tools like traceroute to learn anything. All that an outsider has is an IPv6 IP, and since you're not doing BGP with anything, all they'll know to do is to send the traffic to your ISP.
