Sometimes folks have the IPv6 flag enabled, but they aren't yet doing IPv6 at a particular IXP. If they fill out the IPv6 address, we've seen participants with automated session configuration based on PeeringDB try to ND for a router that isn't yet configured to handle the ND. This results in broadcasts/multicasts on the fabric which our janitor must then chase down to get quashed. Members then tell the janitor that, hey we saw it in PeeringDB, and then the janitor has to explain that in the particular case they are not yet doing IPv6...
When this happens with IPv4 it is no big deal since the arpsponge handles it, but for IPv6 it is inconvenient. Chris/SIX _______________________________________________ Pdb-tech mailing list [email protected] http://lists.peeringdb.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/pdb-tech
