IPv6, long in danger of death by disinterest, got some media interest this week, with Internode's launch of an IPv6 service, perhaps the first such service from an Australian ISP. Richard Chirgwin talks to Internode's founder and CEO Simon Hackett about what made him decide to launch the service, and what it might mean to customers.
In this week's sponsor interview we hear from Nortel's Ryan Perrera, Leader for Metro Ethernet Networks, Portfolio Management for Asia, on the demands the growth of metropolitan Ethernet services is putting on carrier backbones.
