IPv6 even happened to me last night in a small hotel in Schlesvig-Holstein. The performance was abysmal, there was (overloaded) v4 NAT going on, but I got working v6 addresses. The market is in a state where it sometimes just happens. Many legacy systems do not support it, but their loss. I'm all for. It's been close to 10 years since I started using RFC 6540 as a MUST in my procurement work. It has given me better services. -- Måns Nilsson primary/secondary/besserwisser/machina MN-1334-RIPE SA0XLR +46 705 989668 ... I want to perform cranial activities with Tuesday Weld!!
