## The VIWIB
2020-11-23 22:24:39 +00:00
2020-12-02 10:45:28 +00:00
The VIWIB is the bigger sister of our
[VIIRB](/u/products/viirb-ipv6-box/). Compared to the VIIRB, VIWIB has 2
Ethernet ports and a reliable WiFi. It is also slightly bigger in size
2020-12-01 19:42:35 +00:00
(58 x 58 x 25mm). However it does not weigh much - in fact, it
only weighs 40g!
2020-11-23 22:24:39 +00:00
2020-12-01 19:08:19 +00:00
## VIWIB use cases
2020-11-23 22:24:39 +00:00
2020-12-01 19:08:19 +00:00
The main use case of the VIWIB is the same as the VIIRB: to bring IPv6
everywhere in the world. As the hardware differs slightly to the
VIIRB, we have some different use cases in mind for the VIWIB:
2020-11-23 22:24:39 +00:00
2020-12-01 19:08:19 +00:00
### IPv6 only Wifi
2020-11-23 22:24:39 +00:00
2020-12-02 10:45:28 +00:00
The VIWIB comes with a built-in WiFi network. The default SSID is
2020-12-01 19:08:19 +00:00
"IPv6 everywhere" and the default password is "iloveipv6". The
broadcasted WiFi is IPv6 only with DNS64 and NAT64 enabled.
2020-11-23 22:24:39 +00:00
2020-12-02 10:45:28 +00:00
To show that IPv6 is fun, the default sub network id for the
2020-12-01 19:42:35 +00:00
wifi is "7ea", which reads similar to "tea". So if your VPN network
was 2001:db8:ace::/48, the wifi network would be 2001:db8:ace:7ea::/64.
2020-11-23 22:24:39 +00:00
2020-12-02 10:45:28 +00:00
### IPv6-only LAN
2020-11-23 22:24:39 +00:00
2020-12-01 19:08:19 +00:00
If you connect the LAN port to an unused network switch, the VIWIB
2020-12-02 10:45:28 +00:00
will create an IPv6-only network. It is very similar to the WiFi.
2020-11-23 22:24:39 +00:00
2020-12-02 10:45:28 +00:00
To show that IPv6 is fun, the default subnetwork id for the LAN is
2020-12-01 19:08:19 +00:00
"cafe", which reads similar to ... you get point.
2020-11-23 22:24:39 +00:00
2020-12-01 19:08:19 +00:00
### Dual stack LAN
2020-11-23 22:24:39 +00:00
2020-12-01 19:08:19 +00:00
If you connect the LAN port to an existing network with IPv4
2020-12-02 10:45:28 +00:00
connecvitity, the VIWIB will create a dual stack network. Whichever mode
you prefer, is up to you to decide!
2020-11-23 22:24:39 +00:00
2020-12-01 19:08:19 +00:00
## How it works
2020-11-23 22:24:39 +00:00
2020-12-01 19:08:19 +00:00
The VIWIB, like the VIIRB, uses the [IPv6VPN](/u/products/ipv6-vpn/)
2020-12-01 19:51:01 +00:00
to get IPv6 connectivity. The VIWIB is also 100% Open Source, and by
default the firewall is configured to allow outgoing connections from
LAN and WiFi towards the VPN. Incoming ICMP6, SSH, HTTP and HTTPS are
open by default, too.
