How can it be a large, complex deployment if it’s greenfield. In that case, you need to acceptance test the IPv4 just as much as IPv6. The difference is that you don’t have to rerun your acceptance tests 6-months later when you have to implement IPv6 in a rush because you suddenly learned that your major client gets major suckage on IPv4 due to their provider having put them behind the worst CGN on the planet.

And I'm sure you realize that IPv6 only is not an option. I agree that it would have been worth the cost, which would have been just a small fraction of the total. The powers that be chose not to incur it now. But we did deploy only IPv6 gear and systems, so it can probably be turned up later for that same incremental cost. -mel via cellOn Jul 10, 2015, at 3:03 PM, Mark Andrews <marka () isc org> wrote: In message <A24F7CF2-0CD8-4EBA-A211-07BC36988A87 () beckman org>, Mel Beckman writ es:Limited municipal budgets is all I can say. IPv6 has a cost, and if they can put it off till later then that's often good politics. -mel via cellIPv4 has a cost as well. May as well just go IPv6-only from day one and not pay the IPv4 tax at all. The cost difference between providing IPv6 + IPv4 or just IPv4 from day 1 should be zero. There should be no re-tooling. You just select products that support both initially. It's not like products that support both are more expensive all other things being equal.

With lessthan 10,=000 ephemeral users, we don't expect users to demand IPv6 until mostmobile=devices and apps come ready to use IPv6 by default. 'we don't expect users to demand ipv6' aside from #nanog folks, who 'demands' ipv6? Don't they actually 'demand' "access to content on the internet" ? Since you seem to have a greenfield deployment, why NOT just put v6 in place on day0? retrofitting it is surely going to cost time/materials and probably upgrades to gear that could be avoided by doing it in the initial installation, right?+1 and you will most probably see about 50% of the traffic being IPv6 if you do so. There is lots of IPv6 capable equipment out there justwaitingto see a RA.
