With IPv6 growing, if we were to design a native IPv6 router, with IPv4 functionality thrown in, then is it possible to design a more optimal IPv6 router, than what exists today?OK, I'll bite. What would qualify as a "native IPv6" router? Isthisanother concept as silly as "hardware vs software based" routers?Join them and create a router where IPv6 is ASIC-forwarded and IPv4 gets to use a CPU. Market perspectives for such a product are very shy, but would fit the description.
And where half the useful features just don't support IPv6. Make it support draft-ietf-mpls-ldp-ipv6 and we're away :) -- Leigh Porter ______________________________________________________________________ This email has been scanned by the Symantec Email Security.cloud service.
