<DIV>Hi,</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>I just heard, unfortunately, ISOC.PH webhosting provider is not yet IPv6
access enabled. Until they find their way to join the band of IPv6 adopters, we
will have to wait and enjoy online services through IPv4. </DIV>

<DIV>Hi, </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>FYI -- drawing your attention to an announcement we've just made of a
major event we're coordinating for June this year. I'm quite
pleased that the major content providers of the world are stepping up to do a
visible test drive of IPv6, and excited that we have the opportunity to
coordinate the activity. </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>This is a first announcement, and we'll be following up with more
detailed presentations at upcoming technical meetings. As the
announcement notes, we are looking for more participation, and will be
especially happy to get some major non-US content providers signed up to
participate. It would be great if you could help us identify willing
content provider participants -- sign up is available here: <A

<P><I><SPAN>“World IPv6 Day” to take place on June 8, 2011</SPAN></I><SPAN>
</SPAN></P>
<P><SPAN> </SPAN></P>
<P><I><SPAN>GENEVA, SWITZERLAND and RESTON, VIRGINIA, USA</SPAN></I><B><SPAN>
</SPAN></B><SPAN>–</SPAN><SPAN> <B>12 January 2011</B>
</SPAN><SPAN>–</SPAN><SPAN> Facebook, Google (NASDAQ: GOOG) and Yahoo
(NASDAQ:YHOO), websites with more than one billion combined visits each day,
are joining major content delivery networks Akamai (NASDAQ: AKAM) and
Limelight Networks (NASDAQ: LLNW), and the Internet Society, for the first
global-scale trial of the new Internet Protocol, IPv6. On June 8, 2011, dubbed
“World IPv6 Day,” participants will enable IPv6 on their main services for 24
hours. With IPv4 addresses running out this year, the industry must act
quickly to accelerate full IPv6 adoption or risk increased costs and limited
functionality online for Internet users everywhere. The companies are coming
together to help motivate organizations across the industry—Internet service
providers, hardware manufacturers, operating system vendors and other web
companies—to prepare their services for the transition.</SPAN></P>
<P><SPAN>The Internet Society is supporting World IPv6 Day as part of its
efforts to accelerate IPv6 deployment. “2011 is a pivotal year in IPv6
deployment, and World IPv6 Day will prove to be an important milestone,”
commented Leslie Daigle, the Internet Society’s Chief Internet Technology
officer. “By providing an opportunity for the Internet industry to collaborate
to test IPv6 readiness we expect to lay the groundwork for large-scale IPv6
adoption and help make IPv6 ready for prime time. The greater the scope of the
trial, the more effective it will be for all participants so we wholeheartedly
welcome additional participants.”</SPAN></P>
<P><SPAN>IPv6, the successor to the protocol currently used on the Internet,
was designed in the late 1990s but has not seen deployment on a global scale.
With IPv4 address space running out, the industry cannot afford to wait much
longer.</SPAN></P>
<P><SPAN>Vint Cerf, Google’s Chief Internet Evangelist and co-inventor of the
TCP/IP protocol stack, commented, "In the short history of the Internet, the
transition to IPv6 is one of the most important steps we will take together to
protect the Internet as we know it. It's as if the Internet was originally
designed with a limited number of telephone numbers, and we're soon going to
run out." Google has offered a separate IPv6-only version of search on
</SPAN><SPAN lang=EN-GB><A href="http://ipv6.google.com/"
moz-do-not-send="true"><SPAN
lang=EN-US>ipv6.google.com</SPAN></A></SPAN><SPAN> since early 2008, and
during World IPv6 Day the company will enable IPv6 for its main websites,
including </SPAN><SPAN lang=EN-GB><A href="http://www.google.com/"
moz-do-not-send="true"><SPAN lang=EN-US>www.google.com</SPAN></A></SPAN><SPAN>
and </SPAN><SPAN lang=EN-GB><A href="http://www.youtube.com/"
moz-do-not-send="true"><SPAN
lang=EN-US>www.youtube.com</SPAN></A></SPAN><SPAN>.</SPAN></P>
<P><SPAN>Given the diversity of technology that powers the Internet, the
global nature of the trial is crucial to identify unforeseen problems.
“Participating in World IPv6 Day will allow us to obtain real-life data that
we can use to ensure a seamless user experience as we transition to IPv6,”
said Adam Bechtel, Vice President for Yahoo’s Infrastructure Group. “We
welcome this opportunity to collaborate with the technical community and
provide leadership in addressing the scaling challenges facing the
Internet.”</SPAN></P>
<P><SPAN>World IPv6 Day marks a key milestone in enabling more and more
computers and smart phones to come online. As more of the world moves online,
IPv6 will be critical for the Internet to reach its full potential as a
catalyst for growth, innovation and economic prosperity. IPv6 provides over
four billion times more addresses than IPv4, which will help connect the
billions of people not connected today.</SPAN></P>
<P><SPAN>Facebook views the rollout of IPv6 as a critically important step to
keep the world connected. “As an industry, we're working together to ensure
future generations continue to have open and direct access to the Internet as
we do today," said Jonathan Heiliger, Vice President of Technical Operations
at Facebook. "The number of web-connected devices is exploding, and World IPv6
Day is a crucial step in ensuring they can all communicate."</SPAN></P>
<P><SPAN>Akamai Technologies, Inc. (NASDAQ: AKAM), a leading provider of cloud
optimization services, will enable customers to participate in World IPv6 Day.
"IPv6 adoption is still in its infancy," said Harald Prokop, Senior Vice
President of Engineering at Akamai. "We stand ready to support customers
through this important trial, and believe that early planning and testing will
ensure a smooth transition to IPv6." To support the transition to IPv6, Akamai
customers will be able to seamlessly make their existing websites available
via IPv6 without requiring disruptive changes to their origin networking
infrastructure.</SPAN></P>
<P><SPAN>Tom Coffeen, Director of Global Network Architecture for Limelight
Networks, said, "As part of our ongoing commitment to IPv6, Limelight Networks
today is actively delivering customer content over the world’s first fully
IPv6-compliant content delivery service. We are pleased to participate in
World IPv6 Day to encourage the adoption of IPv6 across the Internet and to
transform address resource challenges into innovation and competitive
advantage for our customers."</SPAN></P>
<P><SPAN>One of the goals of World IPv6 Day is to expose potential issues
under controlled conditions and address them as soon as possible. The vast
majority of users should be able to access services as usual, but in rare
cases, misconfigured or misbehaving network equipment, particularly in home
networks, may impair access to participating websites during the trial.
Current estimates are that 0.05% of users may experience such problems, but
participating organizations will be working together with operating system
manufacturers, home router vendors and ISPs to minimize the number of users
affected. Participants will also be working together to provide tools to
detect problems and offer suggested fixes in advance of the trial.</SPAN></P>

<P><B><SPAN>About the need for IPv6</SPAN></B><SPAN> </SPAN></P>
<P><SPAN>IPv4 has approximately four billion IP addresses (the sequence of
numbers assigned to each Internet-connected device). The explosion in the
number of people, devices and web services on the Internet means that IPv4 is
running out of space. IPv6, the next-generation Internet protocol, which
provides over four billion times more space, will connect the billions of
people not connected today and will help ensure the Internet can continue its
current growth rate.</SPAN></P>
