I believe it has to do with IPv6 mechanisms for handling native
addressing. I haven't had the opportunity to test it myself, but from
dealing with other vendors, I find that they all support subsets of
possible configurations. For example, we test the following with each
CPE device which supports IPv6 and is up for consideration.
1) 6to4 support
2) SLAAC + DHCPv6-PD on bridging wan (haven't found one yet, and I
believe still the only setup for IOS)
3) DHCPv6 IA_TA requests + DHCPv6-PD (too bad IOS SR doesn't support
this yet?)
4) Support of RA to determine default route (seen many require manual
gateway configurations since DHCPv6 won't send a default router option)
5) PPPoE/A with above combinations
6) PPPoE/A unnumbered ptp + DHCPv6-PD
7) /60 and /48 DHCPv6-PD and how they are assigned by the CPE
8) DHCPv6 IA_TA, SLAAC, and DHCPv6-PD support on the device's LAN and
determining the mechanism it uses
9) Default stateful firewall rules for IPv6.
10) Support for static assignments and routing for IPv6 (many devices
are still working on dynamic support and have no manual support)
I've yet to find a consumer grade product which meets all of these
different configurations; especially in the $50 range.

of IPv4 configurations and IPv6 routing do work and other combinations
don't.

It works for routing native IPv6 under some circumstances as well.

What about an Airport Extreme? It has a wan interface that does PPPOE
The IPv6 feature seems working, with 6to4 or static tunnels and a basic IPv6
firewall.
Yes it is. I already reported to Marco.

It should be included somehow in a matrix But 6to4 (or other tunneling
techniques) is only a substitute of real IPv6.

Subject: Future of the IPv6 CPE survey on RIPE Labs - Your Input Needed
[apologies for duplicates]
Hello,
Based on new information we received since the last publication, we
updated the IPv6 CPE matrix:
http://labs.ripe.net/Members/mirjam/ipv6-cpe-survey-updated-january-2011
In order to make this information more useful for a large user base, we
are preparing a detailed survey to gather more structural feedback about
the range of equipment that is currently in use. Not only would we like
you to participate in this survey, but we also ask for your help in
identifying the right survey questions. Please find a call for input on
RIPE Labs:

Kind Regards,
Mirjam Kuehne& Marco Hogewoning
RIPE NCC
