As for "breaking" your LAN, if the applications take 60 seconds to

problem with their applications.

The question was about *enterprise* deployment, which raises two issues:

1) most vendors are waiting for customer IPv6 demand before
implementing support (or fixing bugs) - chicken and egg problem.
2) I don't know many enterprises running production software less than
a year (or more) old.

In the meantime, the network engineers struggling with this stuff need
workarounds (like the tuning parameters you and others have
mentioned).
