More IPv6 deployment in US Higher Ed
Per my previous post, IPv6 deployment is growing in North America. I was curious as to who is requesting IPv6 prefixes. I checked the whois data all of the IPv6 prefixes that ARIN assigned in 2007. I saw several US universities in the list:
- Georgia Institute of Technology
- Oklahoma State Regents for Higher Education
- Kentucky Educational Computing Network
- University of Arizona
- University of California at Berkeley
- University of California, Los Angeles
- University of California, Riverside
- University of Hawaii
- University of Michigan
Great news. I haven't seen evidence of IPv6 deployment at these institutions yet (aside from UC Berkeley), but hopefully we'll see something during 2008. I'm really hoping that U. Mich makes their DNS servers IPv6-accessible, since they provide DNS for many universities (Columbia, U. Memphis, U. Wisconsin, San Diego Supercomputing Center, Pittsburgh Supercomputing Center, and UCAR, to name a few).
