Abilene - GEANT (was: Seeing Teredo traffic from Vista?)

Internet2/Abilene's stated routing policy is to only allow IPv6  
prefixed learned from commercial ISPs to be announced to members (ie  
customers) and visa-versa.      You are correct that  AS10886 is  
providing Internet2 with IPv6 transit to IPv6 providers at Equinix  
Ashburn.      It looks like when I setup that routing I tagged the  
routes with wrong community, causing those to leak to GEANT.     
That's fixed now, so those routes should go away.

FWIW, Internet2 is working on it's own connection to Equinix Ashburn  
and will soon have the long awaited IPv6 transit and peering on the  
east coast.      Internet2 is also at Equinix Chicago and willing to  
IPv6 peer there.   If anyone is interested in establishing IPv6  
peering at Equinix Chicago, please let me know.
