Heh, yeah about that... :-) We don't currently have IPv6 services from our upstream, though they (Telia) are able to provide it. Right now our problem is to make the upper layers in our organisation understand why IPv6 is a good idea. The rise in cost (primarily OpEx), though being relatively small, is hard to justify to non-technical management people. (Most of our equipment can handle IPv6 (sort of) but without training/experience things are going to be more cumbersome and thus more expensive. And training is expensive.) The current discussions about policy and "do we have enough address space", combined with e.g. the spat between Cogent/HE/Telia (cf. NANOG thread from October 2009) doesn't help. As Patrick Gilmore said about IPv6: "It either is or is not production ready.". But in the end there's only us (i.e. me, my colleagues and my employer) to blame for our lack of using IPv6. I'm not proud of that. :-) -- Peter _______________________________________________ cisco-nsp mailing list cisco-nsp@puck.nether.net https://puck.nether.net/mailman/listinfo/cisco-nsp archive at http://puck.nether.net/pipermail/cisco-nsp/
