I mean this is just wrong. Routing and switching behave exactly the same in V6 vs V4. Details on how you get an IP and what it looks like changed but there's TONS of knowledge shared between the two.
The things I need to think about are precisely the things that changed radically. Firewall rules aren't the same due to prefix changes and no NAT. DHCP isn't the same, DNS isn't quite the same, distributing NTP servers isn't the same.
Almost nothing of what I knew about configuring my home router for IPv4 has transferred to IPv6 configuration.
Also a nitpick: switching is irrelevant here, that’s L2. L2 doesn’t even know what’s an IP address :)
There was some dude on YouTube that resurrected the first Ethernet bridge (which was built for thicknet) - I recall even that worked with IPv6.
This is exactly what I'm talking about. When you have problems with your IP network, that's the first thing you try and figure out, "what's my address? Why is that my address? Did it change? If so, why? Are other devices able to get packets? What are their addresses? Why can those addresses get packets but this address can't?"
