RE: IPv6 enabled carriers?

["John van Oppen" <john () vanoppen com>]

We have a dual-stack 10G link to XO here in Seattle so they are doing it
as well...   Savvis is not doing v6 yet either so far as I know, we are
going to make that an issue at our next renewal.    I am told that
level3 is working on a full dual-stack roll-out currently and that it
should be available "soon" and will replace the current tunneled options
they have.


Thanks,

I believe most of the ones you've listed have service offerings in
various stages of availability.

You should be able to pop over here:

telnet route-views.equinix.routeviews.org

and take a look at the table easily enough to determine what providers
have it enabled.  Some have been operating with a different ASN for a
number of years, including ATT and Sprint.

If you're not feeding route-views, and are IPv6 enabled, please do.  It
helps those interested in routing research and is a valuable community
asset.
