What does Cisco shitty metro switches have to do with anything? Haaaaaay we have the best shitty metro-e boxes around. We're awesome. On Feb 2, 2013 4:49 PM, "Scott Helms" <khelms@zcorum.com> wrote:
That's one of the reasons to look at active ethernet over gpon. There is much more of a chance to do v6 on that gear, especially cisco's Metro ethernet switches. On Feb 2, 2013 5:27 PM, "Brandon Ross" <bross@pobox.com> wrote:

I can't believe I'm going to beat Owen to this point, but considering you a building a brand new infrastructure, I'd hope you'd support your service provider's stakeholders if they want to do IPv6. To do so securely, you'll want your neutral layer 2 infrastrcuture to at least support RA-guard and DHCPv6 shield. You might also want/need DHCPv6 PD snooping, MLD snooping. We have found VERY disappointing support for these features in this type of gear.
