Asunto: [afnog] IPv6 Native Mass Market Deployment arrives in Kenya!

    Hi All,

    I thought I’d just share this with all of you because I view it as a fairly major step in the right direction for the continent.

    Yesterday, Liquid Telecom turned on IPv6 to all its Kenyan home users using GPON and our FTTH / FTTB products.  This was done in such a way that the customers didn’t need to configure anything themselves to enable it, it was just there
    J

    The CPE’s are all pushed a configuration as well to SLAAC enable the LAN facing interface and doing v6 DNS distribution via ND (though we also have v6 DHCP serving V6 DNS and other-config-flag set on the ND, so it can get the v6 DNS via
     either method if it doesn’t honor the other-config-flag)

    Though, this is now a challenge to all the other ISP’s offering home user mass market products – v6 works – it’s time to start seeing more deployment
    J

    We hope to have the v6 turned up shortly in Zimbabwe and other markets in the next few weeks as well.

    Andrew
