If a CPE has no v6 support, having it available on the DSLAM (in passive mode = do not start IPv6CP until the client initiates it) will not do harm.
The issue here isn't devices that do not support IPv6, it's the ones that do support IPv6 when it "suddenly" is turned on.
The mobile carriers nicely demonstrated how *not* to do it - by ignoring the mandate for IPv6 in 3G, and rolling out huge masses of v4-only handsets, they suddenly had a huge installed basis of, well, v4-only legacy devices to deal with...
Most carriers do not control handsets anymore. Those days are long gone. -- Mikael Abrahamsson email: swm...@swm.pp.se
