It's still lot of technical problems with IPv6 - the main one is dealing IPv6 by software (processors) instead of hardware. The first-hand example: Mikrotik. Lot of HW offload functions are only for IPv4. Same is with some Cisco's, or other randomly pointed devices. Amen.
I don't think anything built by Cisco in the last 10 years falls into the "IPv4 in hardware, IPv6 in software" category anymore. Maybe even 15 years. Instead of spreading outdated information, better spend the time working with those vendors that still ship broken implementations, or take your money elsewhere. If you look for excuses why you are not deploying IPv6, there will be plenty (see http://ipv6excuses.com). If you *want* to deploy, all the difficulties can be overcome - we've run IPv6 in production quality (= no performance penalty, fully monitored, etc.) since close to 20 years now. And yes, lots of obstacles in the beginning. Gert Doering -- NetMaster -- have you enabled IPv6 on something today...? SpaceNet AG Vorstand: Sebastian v.
