>If you upstream providers respond with something such as "IPv what?",

>If you are interested in taking up OCCAID offer, please send an e-mail to

>Per RFC 3701, "6bone (IPv6 Testing Address Allocation) Phaseout", 3FFE
>prefixes only remain valid until June 6, 2006.
>
>After June 6, 2006 no 6bone 3FFE prefixes, of any size/length, are to
>be used on the Internet in any form.
>
>Note that on June 6, 2006 3FFE prefixes do not actively need to be
>returned to the 6bone registry; 3FFE prefixes will simply be invalid
>after that date and assumed to be totally under the control of the
>IANA.
>
>Network operators may filter 3FFE prefixes on their borders to ensure
>these prefixes are not misused.
>
>Because of this, it is highly recommend that all 6Bone participants
>take early measures to find alternative IPv6 services, instead of
>waiting until the last minute, in order to avoid service disruption.
>
>Please take appropriate action now.
