and ISP's should plan on how to do traffic management/engineering in that new world (so start poking your head into the current v6 multihoming 'solution' == shim6) , and vendors should plan on performance at the current level or likely better for bandwidth, pps, route-changes/sec, routing table size... (listen to your customers who are hopefully saying this too?) Oh, and some security thought should probably be had as well... both for applications/os's and networking equipment. -Chris
