s/IPv6/Cogent/ :) No one who is serious about IPv6 is single-homed to Cogent. Arguably, no one who is serious about "The Internet" is single-homed on either protocol. Thus your conclusion seems to be more like wishful thinking. :) Doug On 03/13/2016 11:20 AM, Matthew Kaufman wrote:
I come to the opposite conclusion - that this situation can persist with apparently no business impact to either party shows that IPv6 is still unnecessary.

In the end, google has made a choice. I think these kinds of choices will delay IPv6 adoption.

Just received an updated statement from cogent support:
"We appreciate your concerns. This is a known issue that originates with Google as it is up to their discretion as to how they announce routes to us v4 or v6.
Once again, apologies for any inconvenience."
And:
"The SLA does not cover route transit beyond our network. We cannot route to IPs that are not announced to us by the IP owner, directly or through a network peer."
