I figured that, and thats why I don't trust non-network ops opinions
other than just that...opinions.
However, for some reason, I will personally hold a grudge against myself
if I do not complete a mailing list thread I started with an absolute
conclusion, I have spent the last while(X) perusing the web (and
testing) for solid documentation/solution for how to perform a simple:
# ifconfig em8 inet6 2607:f118::ffff:5 prefixlen 64
# route add -inet6 default 2607:f118::1
...and due to my lack of experience with the Windows "Command Line", am
having a *very* difficult time finding an authoritative solution.
