An IPv6 Connection for the Delegates
Delegates at the V6 and the colocated MPLS & Ethernet World were given the opportunity to experience demonstrations of IPv6 applications, delivered through the Marriott Paris Rive Gauche Hotel and Conference centre’s iBAHN powered network.
To support the iBAHN solution, Colt provided the underlying Internet IPv6 Access service, a first for this combined business solution.
The technical iBAHN team was assisted by Cisco. The solution used Cisco and HP wireless devices. |

A Great Moment: IPv6 Pioneers Discuss with Young Implementers Google, Facebook and Comcast
Steve Deering, founder/father of IPv6, came out of an eight-year retirement together with Bob Hinden (Checkpoint Software) and Erik Nordmark (Cisco). They sat across from a group of twenty-something-year-olds who are currently deploying the essence of one of his major projects (Google, FaceBook, Comcast). This was a scene that was said to be “amazing” to witness.
