> What features are those?Autoconfiguration - IPV6 allows autoconfiguration of the devices by either the router, DHCP server or both. This should resolve most of the problems when merging networks, just change the part atthe front of the /64 (or /48) address and leave the hosts the same. SHould work the same as changing the ISP. -------------------------------------------------------------------- IETF IPng Working Group Mailing List IPng Home Page: http://playground.sun.com/ipng FTP archive: ftp://playground.sun.com/pub/ipng Direct all administrative requests to [EMAIL PROTECTED] --------------------------------------------------------------------
