operational content: Is anyone significantly redesigning the way they route/etc to take advantage of any hooks that IPv6 provides-for (even if its a proprietary implementation)? As far as I can tell, most people are just implementing it as IPv4 with a lot of bits (i.e. /126s for link interfaces, etc).Yes, there are those of us who want to save number of routes and "spending" IPv6 addresses to save on TCAM and convergence time. Using /112 for link networks to make the last octet ::1 and ::2 for links also makes sense from the human perspective.
Well, if y'all want a place to put this hints, I got a whole IPv6y section over here: http://bestpractices.wikia.com Cheers, -- jra -- Jay R.
