What do I mean when I say "it must support IPv6"? I mean two things. First, full feature parity with IPv4. Everything that works under IPv4 must work under IPv6. If you have exceptions, you'd better document them and have a remediation plan (or work-around if it is a deficiency baked into the standard; there are a few of which I'm aware). Second, the device must function perfectly in an IPv6-only environment, with not a hint of IPv4 addressing around. Dual-stack capability is nice, but should be an easy thing to provide if you can handle the first two requirements.
Well spoken RS, I'm cutting and pasting this one to my account team(s). Far too many discussions about this with them recently. (really, you're just *now* getting v6 to work on bundled interfaces?) -Steve
