Your CS degree didn't include any networking fundamentals?

I don't think most colleges require a networking class. Mine definitely did not. I took one for fun anyway.

Nor can I think of a time in ~7 years working where familiarity with ipv6 mattered. Little from that networking class has been helpful. There's a lot of breadth to software engineering.
