| Here to pick up some tips and to help out
A few months ago I made a major commitment to migrate to IPv6.
To that end, I have helped my ISP, ClearRate, to get their /48 v6 allocation, and soon I will get mine from them.
For now I am building a Linux box to act as my PPPoE router for my IPv4 and v6 allocations and have some basic firewalling functions. There are few IPv6 router/firewall options right now for SOHO/SMB use. This will change by the end of this year.
At both the RSA and Interop conference/trade shows, I spent time talking to vendors on IPv6 availablity. I pretty much cmae up empty-handed, but it looks good for those planning Q4 migrations. I will provide updates as I get them.
I am going with both duo-stack workstations, and v6 only (using Teredo for v4 connectivity). I will be looking at running my own Teredo relay/server to support this.
I run my own DNS server for v4 and although I am perfectly capable of editing the zone files wiht VI, I also use Webmin a lot. I will be working with these tools for my v6 DNS needs. I may also do some testing with products like InfoWeapons for v6 DNS, DHCP, etc.
I want to move all my VoIP over to IPv6. PBXnSIP has PIv6, as does SNOM phones. There is a branch of Asterisk 1.6 beta with v6, but it still lacks IAX and H.323.
So that is a sketch of what is going on over here. I will try to supply regular updates and help others out as I go. |

Re: Here to pick up some tips and to help out
I've been running V6 for a couple of years now. I started out with 6to4 at work, and a Go6 tunnel at home. After a years usage, I found 6to4 to be more reliable overall (and usually faster), so both sites are now 6to4.
IPv6 services in use are...
Web (Apache 2)
Mail (Postfix 2 and DoveCot 1)
DNS (BIND 9)
NTP (ISC NTP 4)
SSH (OpenSSL)
These have been working just as well over v6 as v4, no complaints. |

Would it be possible to provide the necessary information, so it could be added to this page:
