RE: IPv6 for Websites

Hey Joe,

This is an interesting perspective. Because, while I agree with your
underlying premise, the customer made a requirement of IPv6. We are going
to be seeing a lot more of this. I recently requested both ARIN IPv4 and
IPv6 space. Our IPv4 request was denied with request to provide a listing
of all of our current allocations. Our IPv6 request for a /44 was
immediately approved with a suggestion to get a /32.

We will probably get a lot more requests for IPv6 now that process is easier
than it is for IPv4 allocations. I think we will be working on an Internet
with an identity crisis for a long time to come. Has your business received
any IPv6 requests? If not, what are your thoughts on solutions that include
NAT64/DNS64, or 6-to-4 proxies, yuck?

Your carrier needs to route IPv6 for you...

Here's a hint: IPv6 was created to boost IT companies bottom line... its not
needed, never was needed, never will be needed...

99% of companies (or more) use nat... entire clusters of home internet users
can also use nat.

The "Global IP Shortage" is a solution looking for a problem...

Bet you $10 in 2020 we're all still using IPv4

All -

As IPv6 will be the future of Internet and I think I know much about IPv6 as
I am studying for my CCIE.

I have a quick question and finding it very difficult to implement.

My company is hosting 2 sites for a small company. This company approached
and said that they want there sites to be IPv6 ready. We enabled IPv6
protocol on the switches and Checkpoint firewall but it still does not work.

Am I missing something or it is not that easy as I am thinking?

Any help will be appreciated.

Regards,
Yuri
