My understanding of the mandate is that they (the Department and Agencies) demonstrate passing IPv6 traffic on their backbone from one system out to their backbone and back to another system. A number of agencies, if I remember the number of about 30 have IPv6 allocations. IRS has demonstrated mandate compliance and several others are in line to also show mandate compliance. Both the Federal CIO Council and the Small CIO council are working with a number of their members to not only obtain compliance with the mandate but examine their processes to see how IPv6 can give them a better method of providing their services to each other and the public.

This deadline is almost here. Are we any close for this transition? I have another related question: Do all ISPs atleast support tunneling the IPv6 pkts to some end point? For example, is there a way for an IPv6 enthusiast to send his IPv6 packet from his laptop to a remote IPv6 server in the current circumstances if his ISP does not actively support native IPv6? Cheers, Glen
