Quoting Ivan Pepelnjak <ip@ioshints.info>:
The minimum you need for load balancers is IPv6 host support, you might add OPTIONAL support for routing protocols.
Obviously they need to support 6-to-4 and 6-to-6 load balancing ... are there any RFCs covering those?
This is indeed the question. Is there any work (in IETF probably) that describes what a load balancer is and what it should support in an IPv6 environment? If not I think we need to improvise. I also think that load balancing is crucial to the deployment not only for IPv6 content but any IPv6 service that needs to scale. Kostas
