We do not charge v4 customers anything to turn up an IPv6 tunnel. If you hear otherwise, please feel free to drop me a line. Native v6 is available in atleast 31 markets, on over 210 edge devices in 701. There is a good chance that native v6 is available for most, or close enough to rehome to a v6 capable device. If native isn't available you should be offered a tunnel for free. I'm happy to try to help anyone with VZ (701/702/703/14551) with their IPv6 issues. --Heather ~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~* Heather Schiller Network Security - Verizon Business 1.800.900.0241 security@verizonbusiness.com -----Original Message----- From: Zaid Ali [mailto:zaid@zaidali.com] Sent: Wednesday, July 21, 2010 3:08 PM To: NANOG list Subject: v6 bgp peer costs? I currently have a v4 BGP session with AS 701 and recently requested a v6 BGP session to which I was told a tunnel session will be provided (Same circuit would be better but whatever!). Towards the final stage in discussions I was told that it will cost $1500. I find this quite ridiculous and it will certainly not motivate people to move to v6 if providers put a direct price tag on it. I am going through a bandwidth reseller though so I am not sure who is trying to jack me here. Has anyone here gone through a similar experience? Thanks, Zaid
