Very common situation. > As Seth pointed out SHIM6 is still an academic exercise Another Locator / ID separator protocol is LISP. The advantage is that you don't need to change the host but only the CPE. I've been using it to multi-home my house and it works fine. I'm multihoming my IPv6 /48 over a v6-only DSL and a v4-only FTTH connection. More information about LISP be found here: http://www.lisp4.net/ Kind regards, Job Snijders
