The last figure that I remember, very impressive, was in April 2004, when the estimated number of hosts using 6to4 on Windows hosts was calculated as 100.000.000 (extrapolated from measurements). This is not including hosts with have native support or use other transition mechanism such as configured tunnels, ISATAP, 6over4, or Teredo (behind NAT).
We notice in our web servers (which are dual stack), incredible amounts of IPv6 traffic, increasing month by month. Other applications which already use IPv6 are SMTP, SSH, News, BitTorrent and Microsoft Peer Name Resolution Protocol. Do you want to guess what will happen with Vista, which comes with IPv6 enabled by default ? Regards, Jordi > De: "Steven J.
