Well, if you want my business, you'll do it.
If not, I'll route around you as damage. If enough customers approach the
problem this way, it will happen.
No disrespect intended, but I don't think you're representative of the
average or even above average ISP customer. For that matter neither are
the majority of the participants on this list.
In addition, I think a large number of providers are already seeing that static
is, for the most part, just simpler
to manage in IPv6 and considering going that way. The cable MSOs are the
obvious exception for semi-obvious
reasons specific to their technology.
From my observations only the cable MSOs are even somewhat prepared for
IPv6 because Cablelabs included it in the DOCSIS 3.0 spec. The DSL and
FTTx networks I've seen are much further behind to the point that only
some kind of tunneling (mainly RD) makes sense as a transition
technology because of the layer 2 challenges.
A large organization that does that should get their own PI space and
multihome. Why would they do anything else? Owen
I thought we were talking about residential users specifically here...
