6BONE first tunnel startup meeting report - 26 Jun 96 - Montreal

[Bob Fink]

As agreed at the 6bone unofficial BOF meeting yesterday, those interested
in immediate 6bone tunnel startup met after the Wed. morning IPng meeting
to discuss the procedure and details.

It was agreed that the WIDE/Japan, G6/France and UNI-C/Denmark IPv6
projects were ready to establish the very first 6bone tunnels.

A startup date of 15 July 1996 was agreed upon.

It was agreed that this process would start by the responsible person from
each project sending email to the 6bone mailer with their request to
establish manually configured tunnels with the other two.

Geert Jan de Groot (of the RIPE NCC) agreed to act as coordinator for this
effort.  It was felt that working out details on the mail list would work
best.

As agreed at the previous day's 6bone meeting, the RIPE-NCC will act as the
6bone Routing Registry.

Also, as agreed at the previous day's 6bone meeting, the  IPv6 Testing
Address Allocation format of RFC 1897 will be used.

Bob Fink
