True, hence my question. ;-)

Sometimes, I don't get to choose.
We have half a rack of old 'excess' cisco-routers just laying around; you
can use without having to fill in 20 papers to 'justify' the cost to the
management.  ;-)

True, but -as OSPF is not yet supported for v6 on cisco-, there only is
RIP is an option (for the time being).

If implementations would exist (for cisco and unix); so would I. ;-)
