Ipv6 Quotes

We've really got availability nailed (with Solaris 8) and have completely removed scalability issues. IPv6 can bring China online because they're running out of IP (Internet Protocol) addresses. - Jeff Bernard

We are seeing companies begin to use IPv6 to expand the reach of their IP infrastructures into any piece of machinery they have or to add value via wireless monitoring so they're able to make sure they know the locations of various pieces of equipment. We've seen some innovative applications being created that will be in production in the later part of next year. - Mack Treece

We are looking forward to working in partnership with World Airwaves to develop innovative IPv6-based solutions that will have national impact for business, entertainment, educational and homeland defense applications. - Alex Lightman

The North American IPv6 Task Force does not agree that IPv6 is not warranted as a significant investment for the U.S. government. It absolutely is required for the Defense Department and for the Department of Homeland Security. It's also required for any future hope of getting to next-generation networks and getting to benefits like mobility and widespread use of personal devices. - Jim Bound

The North American IPv6 Task Force believes that cost is too high. If a customer puts in a new MPLS network and runs IPv6 over it, is that network an IPv6 cost or the cost of technology evolution? We cannot for the life of us figure out how a technology trend is going to cost $1 billion a year. That just doesn't make sense. - Jim Bound

No one should put IPv6 on a network without testing. No one should put IPv6 on a network without additional security. But all U.S. industry -- whether you're Wal-Mart or General Motors -- should be moving to IPv6. - Jim Bound

I've driven by the port of Los Angeles and I can't imagine the whole thing is being watched for nuclear weapons. I'd like to have an IPv6-connected sensor network to every possible point of entry into the country to sense radiation and more complicated sensors for biological and chemical weapons. - Alex Lightman

It had to be state of the art, but not cutting edge or bleeding edge. It had to be something that would carry us for 20 to 25 years. We wanted it to be adaptive, so we wouldn't have to rip it out when new technologies like IPv6 come down the pike. We wanted it to support agency standards and conform to our architecture. But the big thing was to remove IT boundaries within the different organizations within the FDA. - Glenn Rogers
