most of the exchanges with address space from ep.net have IPv6 prefixes delegated. some of them have those prefixes in use. I'd say ~20% of the 150 exchanges that we manage space for have active IPv6 assignments. there are roughly 20 others that I am aware of. --bill

Next to the space from ep.net there is also some 'universal' space from the RIR's called 'Global IPv6 Internet Exchange Points Assignments'. Check http://www.ripe.net/ipv6/ipv6allocs.html at the bottom for a list. Apparently (quite probably due to ep.net ;) there are no ARIN delegations yet though. Is there a list Bill? RIPE count is at 26, APNIC at 7. Note that IXP's can also use any other space, eg from the company or something. The above mentioned space should not be announced to any other parties who are not directly connected to the IXP btw. See the docs about the space for more details though. Notez bien that it are only /48's and /64, only TLA's should be announced unless you have some private commitment. Also see http://www.space.net/~gert/RIPE/ipv6-filters.html Greets, Jeroen

Yes, many exchanges do that, and more add v6 support all the time. As usual, the list is at... http://www.pch.net/resources/data/exchange-points/ Updates and corrections solicited, as always. -Bill
Hello Michael, There is a policy in the ARIN region that allows IPv6 and IPv4 "micro-allocations" to exchange points. The policy is stated at: http://www.arin.net/policy/2001_3.html The list of IPv6 micro-allocations ARIN has made to date is available at the following URL. These allocations are also documented in ARIN WHOIS. http://www.arin.net/registration/ipv6/micro_alloc.html Best Regards, Richard Jimmerson Director of Operations American Registry for Internet Numbers (ARIN)

Netnod is doing this at all our exchanges in Sweden and for all medias. - kurtis - On söndag, apr 20, 2003, at 06:44 Europe/Stockholm, Michael K. Smith wrote:
