I enjoyed getting the IPv6 certification from Hurricane Electric. Everyone should learn about it! https://ipv6.he.net/
Off topic, but I love Hurricane Electric's website. Simple, but not ugly. Straight to the point. I find it quite charming in contrast to the hyper designed, but barely functional sites of other companies. (fuck you HPE)
I still have my IPv6 sage shirt somewhere.
Also don't forget that if you're stuck on an old network, as long as your router replies to pings you can get a tunnel for a /48 and a bunch of /64s for free. That's 65536 networks of 2^64 IP addresses to play around with. Make your own traceroute puns! Experiment with routers in virtual machines using real addresses! Make your IP address end in dead:beef:cafe!
And if you complete the quiz, they'll send you a free t-shirt. That's pretty cool.
