pTLA request from IIJ

[Kazu Yamamoto (山本和彦)]

IIJ(http://www.iij.ad.jp) would like to request one pTLA block. 

Conformance to RFC 2546 is as follows;

   1. The site MUST have experience with IPv6 on the 6Bone, at least as
      a leaf site and preferably as a transit pNLA under an existing
      pTLA.

IIJ is a transit pNLA of the WIDE pTLA.

   2. The site MUST have the ability and intent to provide "production-
      like" 6Bone backbone service to provide a robust and operationally
      reliable 6Bone backbone.

IIJ is now providing robust connectivity services to seven IPv6 sites.

   3. The site MUST have a potential "user community" that would be
      served by becoming a pTLA, e.g., the requester is a major player
      in a region, country or focus of interest.

IIJ is one of the biggest IPv4 ISPs in Japan. And already connects
seven IPv6 sites.

   4. Must commit to abide by the 6Bone backbone operational rules and
      policies as defined in the present document.

IIJ certainly commits. Note that some of IIJ guys are actually
the operators of WIDE IPv6 backbone.
