ISP
Fahad AlShiwari, Managing Director of 2Connect, on the need for better IPv6 compatibility in access networks.
Internet Service Providers (ISPs) play a key role in the global adoption of IPv6. For End User organisations, the question of whether their ISP can provide IPv6 services is one of the most significant factors in deciding whether or not to commit resources to their own IPv6 deployment.
For an ISP, IPv6 deployment is even more important to projecting an image as a market leader than for other industries. As IPv6 deployment progresses, those ISPs who have not invested in adopting IPv6 in their networks may find attracting new customers difficult, and may begin to lose existing customers who wish to proceed with their own IPv6 deployment.
