Many ISPs and end-user firewalls seek to block bogons, because they have no legitimate use (more details on how successful they can be at this are below). But filtering the full bogon list requires about 5000 rules for IPv4 and about 70,000 rules for IPv6. Filtering private IP addresses requires only a few rules.

Anyway, I definitely see the value of a server OS that really can configure the IP addresses automatically, and all you have to do is follow on screen directions. Installation of the DHCP role is straightforward enough until the question of IPv6 is raised. All clients in the network concerned are running Win7 Pro. 3/07/2012 2:07 PM.
