<p class="MsoNormal">Dear All,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Those of you that were present at the past GRNOG14 probably remember my presentation on IPv6 status where I mentioned an IETF draft on IPv6 multi-homing connectivity, a typical requirement of enterprises.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">The draft is "IPv6 Site Connection to Many Carriers" and you can find it here:
<a href="https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-fbnvv-v6ops-site-multihoming/">https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-fbnvv-v6ops-site-multihoming/</a>.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">The target we’d like to achieve is to provide a list of the solutions to support multi-homing through IPv6, discussing their pros and cons.
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I am writing to GRNOG to ask for your support in two areas:<o:p></o:p></p>
<ol style="margin-top:0in" start="1" type="1">
<li class="MsoListParagraph" style="margin-left:0in;mso-list:l0 level1 lfo1">We’d like to get the feedback of the community on the technical content of the draft, e.g. whether anything is missing or needs more discussion.<o:p></o:p></li><li class="MsoListParagraph" style="margin-left:0in;mso-list:l0 level1 lfo1">We have prepared a short survey to collect data from the field and get a picture of the solutions that are more widely deployed. The survey is anonymous and can be accessed here:
<a href="https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSdvj4VtixaoXpMpfXhUJawXdQ60MzBKKp6aZ3i9FkKTvynqSg/viewform?usp=sf_link">
https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSdvj4VtixaoXpMpfXhUJawXdQ60MzBKKp6aZ3i9FkKTvynqSg/viewform?usp=sf_link</a>. We would be grateful if you can provide your input. The survey is open until the end of November.<o:p></o:p></li></ol>
<p class="MsoNormal"> <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">If you are interested, we are working to give a presentation on the draft and the survey results at the next RIPE 87 meeting.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Please feel free to get in touch, should you have any questions or comments.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Thank you for your cooperation.<o:p></o:p></p>
