And will for the foreseable future. I am not one of your customers, but I like your realistic views. I vote with my wallet and buy my transit from the ISP who understands my needs.
I regularly vet deals for our sales team, and out of the hundreds of deals we sold this year, I can count on one hand the number of deals where customers wanted IPv6.
Won't change any time soon. For the vast majority of business eyballs and entreprises, IPv6 is not even on the agenda.
But what enterprise wants to tell its non-IPv6 customers "your Internet needs to be upgraded, come back to us when you're done?" That doesn't bode well for the short-term future.
None of my customers has IPv6. None of my suppliers has IPv6. Nobody wants The business / enterprise ecosystem is and will remain of a size large enough to keep the IPv4 services for the foreseeable future. Facebook going IPv6-only ? that would be a blessing. That is not what we pay employees to do at the office. As Sabri would have said, why should I look like an idiot and go to the board and the investors for money to invest in something that has zero ROI ? I was on the 6bone. I heard the IPv6 FUD for 20 years. Michel.
