Hi Dave,

I'm not sure. I'll have to do some research. I just know on several RFPs I've worked on recently
they specified IPv6. When we asked why, they sort of incredulously answered because its the next
generation and more secure and I think they mentioned something about a GSA directive. I know they
keep saying that it is coming and we have to be ready at the DoD facility where I work. I'll have
to try and dig some more.

Regards,

Brad Van Orden
