Deploying IPv6: Hurricane Electric

In our introductory video about IPv6, John Curran of ARIN offered a big-picture overview of the IPv6 transition. In this video, we look at how one company has pursued early adoption of IPv6 as a competitive differentiator. Martin Levy of Hurricane Electric discusses his company’s IPv6 deployment, their corporate strategy, and the planning and experiences during the IPv6 roll-out. “We see revenue coming in specifically due to having IPv6 requirements,” said Levy. The company’s IPv6 certification service “has clearly brought more people to the table” as well. This video runs 7 minutes.
