No, it is yours. Don't use your ISP-IPv6-reluctance for any delay on your side.
Around the net you can find reports that failure to provide IPv6 will be a reason for ISP's to go bust. Are you willing to wait for that to happen? And then be forced to move to another ISP?
In the mean time, use a tunnelbroker ... [snip] ... My /48 is now independant of my isp,and i can switch to another isp without any re-numbering, Just adjusting my tunnel setup.
I'm pretty ignorant of the issues, so could you or somebody else explain how this helps? (perhaps a link to a RTFM/FAQ?)
Surely, if your ISP goes broke then you will still have to change your mail, DNS, ADSL login etc credentials anyway (or else the ISP must have been taken over seamlessly) so I'm not clear how already having an IPV6 connection saves much work.
If you're running services (mail, web, whathaveyou) on your IPv6 range, a change of provider will mean changing IP-addresses, just like today. If you're not running services, it doesn't matter much - just like today. -- Per Jessen, Zürich (-0.8°C) -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
