Apparently, from what I have gathered from other french people, Free has rolled out a variation of 6to4 using their own prefix instead of the well known 2002::/16. As they control their home gateway, this was fairly easy for them to do and did not require much core infrastructure change. The apparent benefit is that they control the routing of the return packets and thus do not need to worry about packets going through Palo Alto, Switzerland or Korea (well known 6to4 relays) on their way back from the 'native' IPv6 Internet... - Alain.

In a recent Slashdot article (http://slashdot.org/articles/07/12/17/1451230.shtml) discussing IPv6, someone left a comment the read, in part "One of the largest IPSs (sic) in Europe turned on IPv6 to all 8 million users this week. They've done the right thing and made it opt-in for now, their customers have to go to their control panel web page and turn it on, but almost 50,000 people did in the first 24 hours." Does anyone know which ISP the poster is talking about? Is there any truth to this at all? Any feedback appreciated. Sean Siler IPv6 Program Manager Microsoft
