The same way it works for IPv4? PPP is a link layer protocol, on a par with Ethernet or ADSL (in fact, ADSL /uses/ PPP to transport data between your router and the DSLAM). It doesn't really care what data is being transported, so there should be no problem using IPv6 on a dial-up modem. The problem you do face is not a technical one, but rather a financial/business one. You would need to find either an ISP who provides native IPv6 (rare at the moment) and does so on dial-up lines or alternatively, use a tunnel broker such as HE.net or SIXXS.net to be your IPv6 endpoint in their stead. -- Paul Saunders
