Hi!

Perhaps the great advantage we have, is that our network is rather small at the moment. So this might be the perfect time to start the use of IPv6 apart from starting to using it right from the beginning.

In the meantime I have run a few tests, and it seems to be very easy to set up a parallel IPv6 network.

Anyway, we are just starting to understand the concepts, so apologize for any "dumb questions" I have. But here is another one: I read about, that several tunnel techniques do not work in juniper. Is it today possible, to give a customer only IPv6 access (for example a FTTH link), to let him access the whole internet? Are there any conversions available on Juniper, that can do that?

Maybe I first should get our prefix announced, before getting to the complex questions ;)

Regards,

Matthias

Hi,

Congrats! If you have MPLS in your backbone, you can continue to use IPv4 as the transport for your MPLS signaling. With this approach you can run 6VPE and build a VPN for your inet6 traffic. This is a common approach for "getting things going". All v6 stuff just rides across MPLS and your core doesn't know the difference.

If you plan to carry inet6 routes in a non-ipvpn topology, you can get your core "dual stack"; if you run OSPFv2 today you will need to consider OSPFv3 or ISIS to carry IPv6 in your IGP.

You can have all your ipv4 configuration coexist with ipv6.

You can also use logical routers / virtual routers / etc, if you want separation at that level.

Kind regards,
Truman

Hi!

Today we received our IPv6 prefix from RIPE. There are many projects in the pipeline, so we would like to enable our network with IPv6 and would like to start new projects with default deployment in IPv6.

What would be the best practice to bring our backbone to IPv6? Would one use a virtual router for this? Or is it doable to configure IPv6 in parallel to my other configuration? Do I have special memory requirements for a virtual router, like a VM on VMware?

Matthias
