For example, he needs to know that the top 4 cellular providers in US already carry more than 60% IPv6 traffic (my guess is that it will be over 75% at the end of this year), so if he wants to keep going connected to Internet, he should deploy native IPv6 instead of translating or anything else.<br>

HI<br>
So after the last round of mails on this list, I emailed a friend of mine who I know head up the IT/Security for a company in the US asking if he makes use of v6 and if not, if he has plans to or why not and this was his response:<br>
<br>
</span> “I am indeed in charge of 2 companies' IT in the US. We don't run IPv6 and my guidance is to disable IPv6 on all devices and block it on the firewall. The reasoning behind this is that IPv6 adds complexity and a possible alternate communications route with no advantage that I can see. If you can point me towards any business justification to use IPv6 internally then I'd be very interested, but I haven't been swayed by the "because it's the right thing to do" argument.”<br>
<br>
<br>
I guess this is a fairly standard response. So this is the perception that we need to change. The key being no ADVANTAGE…<br>
<span class=""> Does anyone know of any short articles that have been produced to counter this type of argument? Cases where 6to4 natting won’t work etc?<br>
<br>
</span> Firstly to send to him and secondly, perhaps that is the kind of thing that we need to tackle the business world with.<br>
<br>
<br>
Kind Regards,<br>
