At NLnet Labs, we chose Rust when starting two related projects for the routing security framework, RPKI: the certification authority Krill, and the relying party software, Routinator. Initially attracted by the memory safety guarantees, we learned to love the expressive type system that prevents many common mistakes at compile time and the excellent native build tooling.

But how difficult is it to use Rust and its ecosystem to write network applications that support IPv6?
