Readiness for IPV6

And of course in the American higher education space, IPv6 traffic handling
was one of the factors that motivated the selection of Juniper's T640's for 
the next generation of the Abilene/Internet2 backbone (see:
http://archives.internet2.edu/guest/archives/I2-NEWS/log200204/msg00003.html).
Related to that, a growing number of Internet2 connectors now do native IPv6
peering with the Abilene backbone (rather than tunnelling their v6
connectivity), including NYSERnet, the Pittsburgh Gigapop, Great Plains,
WiscNet, 6Tap, CUDI, ANS, MAX, Surfnet, and APAN. (see, for example:
