I'd have to object with such a blanket statement. I don't think you can say you support IPv6 (from an ISP's point of view) without DHCPv6, since I don't think anyone at a large ISP sized scale is going to leave address assignment up to RTADV. I'm aware that Vista added support for DHCPv6, and I have heard naught else (aside from the unixes). So, it's my opinion that IPv6 "may" only recently have started enjoying the level of operating system support required for actual ISP-scale use by one major vendor...and I don't know how commonly deployed Vista is yet. -- David W.
