Hi,

I've done it either way, I prefer to put the v6 peers in a different
group  than the v4 peers so that I can group the policies at the group
rather than neighbor level.

I'm prepping an environment for v6 and I'm wondering what, if
 any, benefit there is to splitting v4 and v6 into separate groups.  
We're running Junipers and things are fairly neat and ordered; we have 
multiple links to a few providers in many sites, so we group them and 
apply the policies at the group level.  We could stick the new v6 
neighbors into the same group and apply the policies at the neighbor 
level, or create new groups (i.e. Level3 and Level3v6).

This 
might sound a little nit-picky, but I'm concerned that there's a nuance 
I'm not thinking of right now and I don't want to be "that guy" who puts
 something in place and is cursed for a decade.

Thanks,
Keith Tokash
