[AusNOG] My Predictions for the ISP Industry

[Greg McLennan]

Funny thing on this topic. This morning I configured up my Mikrotik 
750GL Router and now distributing dual-stack around my network, has 
probably best ipv6 front end I'v seen yet on the market( RouterOS 
v5.14).  Bang for buck(mikrotik 750GL router under $100 delivered) to 
get dual stack on older adsl equipment is great..

(Internode ISP) ---- (ADSL MODEM in bridge mode)------(PPPoE  on 
Mikrotik 750GL)==Local LAN's IPV4/IPV6

Cheers
Greg.
