I turned it on about 10 years ago and without realising accidentally routed my internal home network. My IDS went nuts, I realised mistake, I rolled the change back, and haven’t gotten around to it since.
I think for me, the reliance on DNS makes my anxious… As is, my home net is overly complex (32+ discreet screened VLANS with vlsm, multiple discreet segregated WiFi networks, etc, etc… (don’t ask why, “it’s complicated”)) and being able to navigate it when DNS breaks is easy… Remembering ipv6 internal addresses is something I’ll likely never be able to do…
I used to be a comms / security engineer so I could justify spending time during the day fixing stuff in my “lab” when it broke. These days, not so much…
So for me it is more “fear of the unknown” and “having time to work through the kinks…”
But with DMC here now pushing me on, perhaps it is time to migrate a pilot network segment and get over myself…
