Short answer: don't. Your configuration becomes more complex, and you need IPv6 connectivity anyway to transfer the packets. Just exchanging routes is not enough. And if you have IPv6 transport, it is much easier to also use that to set up a IPv6 BGP session.

If Akamai is asking for this I don't understand why...
