100% agreed! Been whining about that here many times. I have been trying to get IPv6 going for a long time, but the above stopped my plans. One thing I mentioned recently, though, is we just got a $BIGCUSTOMER and their requirement was we do IPv6. So keep your IPv6 deployment plans ready. In my case they said a 'we need it right now' kind of thing. That could happen to anyone here.
How about just doing it and then asking for forgiveness later :-)?
That's what I did in 2005, but fair point, the network was only 2 routers big and in just one city :-). ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I would be looking for a new job and it is a much larger network than 2 routers is a big city. :) Sabri Berisha was correct: "The true enemy here is mid-level management that refuses to prioritize deployment of IPv6. What we should be discussing is how best to approach that problem. It's where ops and corporate politics overlap." What I always heard when I bring it up and they don't want to talk about it was "What's the business case?" They know there isn't one. scott
