IPv6 on ATM



Christer,

there isn't any standard for IPv6/ATM yet and there are still problems to be 
solved (i.e. how to autoconfigure a node, how ND should work, etc).

Nevertheless, you can tunnel IPv6 traffic using IPv4/ATM (what's probably not 
what you want to do). We did this already here in Germany between Berlin and 
Karlsruhe using the B-ISDN of the Deutsche Telekom. Worked very well.
