Speaking of Standards » World IPv6 Day is Tomorrow. Are You Ready To Participate?

Ipv6day

“World IPv6 Day” is tomorrow, June 8, 2011. Are you ready to participate?

Google, Facebook, Yahoo and hundreds of other sites are preparing to enable IPv6 on their main websites. For 24 hours, the main websites of those organizations will be accessible over both IPv4 and IPv6, rather than requiring a separate domain name like “ipv6.google.com” or “www.v6.facebook.com“.

The day will be a day to test out how well various websites work using IPv6… and what experiences users have in connecting over IPv6.

Would you like to join in the testing and experimentation?

To do so, you need to have IPv6 connectivity, naturally. You can go to either of these sites to see if you currently have IPv6 connectivity:

If you do have IPv6 connectivity, then you are all set to participate and will have no problem connecting to sites using IPv6.

If you do not, but would like to join in the experiment, here are two articles I wrote about how you can easily configure a home network to use IPv6 using the free service available at Tunnelbroker.net:

I also have other information available on our IPv6 Resource Page including tutorials, videos, and more.

Want to learn more about IPv6? Check out our IPv6 Resources Page or watch our recent webinar about IPv6 and Communications Applications. Looking for a communication platform, application server or IVR system that already supports IPv6? Download Prophecy 10.1 or PRISM 10.1 from our IPv6 Resources Page or contact us if you would like more information.
