Right, but it means that more network providers are
having to offer some type of solution. This will
enable Windows (or whatever) to have it on by default
and actually have it work.
Vendor C's issues with v6 are a problem, but they're
not the only provider of core or edge gear...
Also, even though their forwarding mechanisa are not
completely functional, they do pass packets, so it'll
work, just not be optimized.
