If Verizon = AS701/702/703 (VerizonBusiness/UUnet/MCI) then you should 
be able to just call your sales person and ask for it.. We can do native 
in several locations, and if native isn't available in your location, we 
can set you up w/ a tunnel and move you over to native when it becomes 
available.


**Any current Verizon Business (fUUnet/MCI) customer can call and ask 
for IPv6 connectivity.  There is no additional charge for turning up 
IPv6 on your existing connection**



If Verizon = AS19262 you'll have to wait a bit longer..


snip that stuff about ATT



There seems to be a certain trend towards claiming IPv6 capability in 
order to win business, hoping that people are just looking for the check 
in the box and not actual exchange of packets.

Does that also include connections through resellers?  In our case, that's 
WBS Connect.  I asked them about this last year and was told that their 
contact at Verizon Business had told them IPv6 wasn't available.  Has that 
changed?

Yes, it includes connections through resellers.  Your reseller, in this 
case, WBS, has to request it and sign the consent form on your behalf. 
There is no technical limitation to providing the service.

  Verizon provides ipv6 connectivity according to their website.

 turn the words referred to above into service, I would be very happy  
 to hear about how they did it.
 
  Att most likely does as well.
 
 The last time I attempted to buy 7018 transit I specified that I  
 needed v6, and the answer was yes, we can do that. But when it came  
 to placing an order, the reaction swiftly changed to oh, no, actually  
 we can't.

No comment on either Verizon or ATT since we don't buy transit from
them. However, we *do* buy transit from Global Crossing, and have had
IPv6 (native, non tunneled) transit from them since at least 2004.

You didn't say native was required and a tunnel might be ok for testing. Try 
Hurricane Electric's Tunnel Broker. Your favorite search engine will find it ie 
'Hurricane Electric Tunnel Broker' IIRC.

trying to locate one.  if anyone on the list knows of a provider please
contact me off list.

 

Thanks!

 Similarly, we have had no problems with ordering v6 transit 
 from NTT America, Global Crossing or Teleglobe in North 
 America (also, Tiscali in Europe, and FLAG in Asia). In each 
 case v6 transit was treated as a routine provisioning 
 exercise, with no need for escalation to obscure greybeards.

I've just added this list to the ARIN IPv6 wiki here:

It seems that in North America many providers are spouting v6, but
it's transit or tunneled, not native internet service.  I've had
native v6 internet service from NTT/Verio since 2004.  Been great so
far...

I think HE does native as well. Likely good based on their rep. 

Best,
