Well, some of the old Telco's don't seem to understand that things are 
changing. They still operate with the understanding that everything is 
special and needs to be added onto the cost of your circuit. Someone 
*cough*AT&T*cough* wanted to charge for the ability to use bgp community 
blackholes on their network. IPv6? Oh yeah, I had to do some digging on 
this, its part of our MIS++^3 service, we'll pursue this on an 
individual case basic and need to open an ICB pricing request to 
determine the cost to add this feature to your circuit.

ahem, yeah.. You get the drift.

I hope they don't charge more for IPv6. Currently ARIN is offering discounts 
for those that want to deploy IPv6, and they are considering making IPv4 cost 
more as time goes on in order to "push" IPv6 adoption.

As far as vendors go, I've seen the same thing on our end, I'm pretty 
sure none of our CPE supports it as of yet, the only thing that does is 
our routers. I would like to say that Imagestream has been great as far 
as getting us updated with IPv6 tools,  their engineers are working on 
quite a few exciting things that I think are going to help the migration 
of IPv6 into our network.

We just got our allocation last Friday, I think out of all of our 
upstreams, only 2 do IPv6 on their own backbone. And honestly I'm a bit 
worried to contact one of them..  they're going to want to charge us for it.

Re: [WISPA] IPv6 and Us

2008-03-03 Thread Jeff Broadwick
It's being done a lot in the South East Asia.  We are just getting our first
requests for people actually needing to use IPv6 on our routers.  I'm sure a
lot of the bugs will be worked out by the time most in the US get started
with it.

I've done this at home with one of my Linux boxes and it works great on 
Linux and OS X.  That's as far as I got.

We went to an ARIN IPv6 meeting, and even got our initial IPv6 
allocation.  The biggest problem pointed out by the DOD presenter was 
that nobody's eating their own dog food.  All the vendors are making 
IPv6 "compliant" gear, but it doesn't cooperate well (he cited various 
issues in their testing).

That leads to the second problem, which is since nothing works, nobody 
deploys.  Without anybody deploying, nothing gets tested so that it 
works.  A big chicken-and-egg problem...

After getting our deployment, I asked our (big name) upstream providers 
about setting up concurrent IPv6 peering or tunneling, whichever would 
work.  They were reluctant and said they weren't really ready or 
couldn't do it.

We went to an ARIN IPv6 meeting, and even got our initial IPv6

[WISPA] IPv6 and Us

2008-03-03 Thread Anthony R. Mattke
Someone posted some questions about a year ago about IPv6 and most of us 
looked at it and said yeah, some day.. but for a lot of us IPv6 is our 
next step.

Has anyone sat down and done anything thinking about how they're going 
to meet guidelines for deployment? More specifically how are we going to 
hand out a /48 to each customer ? This is much easier in a PtP world, 
but with PtMP it makes it much more difficult to manage. Who is using 
link-locals for PTP router connections on your backbone? What about /64s 
? Anyone see major issues with doing such? What about IPv6->IPv6 
gateways/6to4 tunnels? Anyone configure one on their network yet? Are 
people running dual stack instead of depending on a gateway/tunnel? Or 
have there been issues with setting up dual stack POPs?

There are a lot of questions for anything thinking about IPv6 
integration / migration, and I'd like to discuss some of the options as 
far as moving forward with IPv6 deployment with anyone that is interested.
