Re: Quick IP6/BGP question

[Owen DeLong <owen () delong com>]

At Hurricane, most of our IPv6 peerings are exchanging over IPv6 addresses.

In general, most routers work better if you run IPv4 peering on IPv4 and IPv6
peering on IPv6. In many cases, this is because the configuration files are less
confusing more than any underlying dependency in the router OS.

YMMV, but, my recommendation is to peer v6 on v6 and v4 o v4.
