pTLA request for UNAM

[Bob Fink]

6bone Folk,

Per the request from Cesar Olvera (below), I'm opening a two week review 
period for a pTLA for UNAM. I will close this on 28 September 99. 

Note that this will be a /28 pTLA assignment.

Comments either to the list or to me please.


Thanks, 

Bob

>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.

>UNAM is in 6Bone since june 99. In this moment UNAM is a pNLA of SPRINT

>(3FFE:2900::/24) and FIBERTEL pTLA (3FFE:3800::/24).

>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.
>
>We have experience maintaining our IPv4 Network (35, 000 hosts, 135 WAN
>links, 200 LAN, 
>11 Internet connection, 1/3 of Mexico's  Internet traffic). Currently we
>are working in UNAM's production IPv6 Network (http://www.ipv6.unam.mx)

>6Bone connection to mexican and latin american institutions.

>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.

>UNAM is one of the biggest IPv4 ISPs in Mexico and Latin America. In
>Mexico's Internet2 effort, UNAM is one of the main participants. In
>other hand, UNAM is the Mexico main research center in all scientific
>and social areas, for example we have the first Telecommunications
>Interoperability Lab in Mexico.
>
>4. Must commit to abide by the 6Bone backbone operational rules and
>policies as defined

>We understand that routing practices and we are agree.
