<h2>IPv6 in &os;</h2>
|
|
<p>&os; is a widely used, open source operating system whose network stack
|
|
has been the foundation for decades of research, as well as a reference
|
|
implementation of IPv6 (developed by the
|
|
<a href="http://www.kame.net/">KAME</a> project).
|
|
&os; first shipped IPv6 support in March 2000 as part of &os;
|
|
<a href="&base;/releases/">4.0-Release</a>.
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<h2>IPv6 and the &os; Project</h2>
|
|
<p>The &os; Project has been an early adopter and active participant in
|
|
the IPv6 community. With the help of the community, we have been
|
|
serving releases from IPv6-enabled servers since May 2003 and &os;'s
|
|
website, mailing lists, and developer infrastructure have been IPv6
|
|
enabled since 2007.
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>&os; is used by critical Internet infrastructure such as root name
|
|
servers, routers, firewalls and some of the world's busiest and most
|
|
reliable web sites as well as embedded into many products all in the
|
|
need for the best IPv6 support. To read more about some companies
|
|
using the &os; operating system in their products, see the
|
|
<a href="http://www.freebsdfoundation.org/testimonials.shtml">&os;
|
|
Foundation Testimonials</a> page.
