Users on one floor get a strange IPv6 prefix and slow websites
SecurityWorking
The ticket
Monday morning, users in VLAN 20 on the third floor report that some websites take several seconds to start
loading and a few internal tools time out. IPv4-only sites are fine. The helpdesk noticed that affected laptops
have two global IPv6 addresses: one from the real prefix 2001:db8:acad:20::/64 and one from
2001:db8:77:1::/64, which nobody recognizes. The gateway is DSW1, link-local fe80::1. Access switch ASW1
has no IPv6 first hop security configured.
Step 1 of 3
Laptops have an address from a prefix nobody owns. What do you look at first?
