I use IPv6 every day and everywhere I can. It solves so many issues in large corporate and ISP network setups. And yes 10. Wasn’t big enough, and NATing is a PitA.
Honestly we just keep pushing it off when it’s not that bad. Workaround after workaround just because people are lazy.
How much slack did you have in your 10.* network? Or was it literally 16.7 million devices?
16M devices on one network would almost certainly have major scalability problems all its own. SMB chattiness alone . . . shudder.
