Really...tunneled connectivity without link monitoring (can't with
tunnels), latency/throughput checks or quality checks using a route server?

As Randy would say: I suggest everybody else to use that!

Please though do not do this, it will just make IPv6 SUCK for everybody
using that.

For the few ISPs who are in a remote location who cannot get native
IPv6, let these people connect to their CLOSEST native connectivity point.

I'll repeat again: if you know of ISPs who want IPv6, but cannot get it,
let them send an email here. I am sure that various real transit
providers will make them offers they cannot refuse.


A setup like you propose with 6assist is fun for people who want to
LEARN how BGP works, but for real connectivity, please just do not do it.
