Cogent's policy of requiring a new contract, and from what I am still being told by some European customers, new money, from customers in exchange for provisioning IPv6 on existing circuits, means a simple technical project gets caught up in the complexities of budgeting and contract execution.
"Can we have IPv6 transit?" "Yes, please turn up a session to.."
That was asking Cogent for IPv6 dual-stack on our existing IPv4 transit.
I continue to hear different. In my first-hand experience just about three weeks ago, I was told by Cogent that I need to execute a new contract to get IPv6 added to an existing IPv4 circuit (U.S. customer.) This turned a simple pilot project with only a few I.T. folks involved into, well, I'm still waiting on this new contract to be executed.
