I think it's a question of price to create the service. Newer plattforms have built in IPv6 in hardware so performance isn't an issue, the code base is maturing which is also a very important step forward. In a couple of years it won't be so much an issue of "purchasing equipment that can do IPv6" but more "turning it on" which is a huge difference when it comes to creating a service and deploying it. When IPv6 is in almost all newer IOSes and these get phased into production environments, I think we'll see much more IPv6 than today. I know that I am not alone in considering IPv6 ability of hardware I am about to purchase that I believe will be around for 3-5 years. -- Mikael Abrahamsson email: [email protected]
