Help! Our Freenet6 service is straining to keep up with the increase in IPv6 traffic and users so we are looking for partners willing to host a Freenet6 POP. Compounding this we recently lost our POP in Australia that was generously hosted by our close partner IPv6Now.
This is a great opportunity to help the…

After years of software development, prototyping, hardware design, testing, customer partnering and industrial design, the gogoCPE is finally available and ready for purchase! From our experience in working with service providers on their IPv6 trials using our software client it became obvious that using software would not work en masse. Functionality worked great; remembering to keep it always running - not so much. So the idea of a hardware version of our software client was born in…

IANA’s unallocated pool of IPv4 addresses ran dry yesterday. In a classic DEFence CONdition move, APNIC ran their address pool lower than usual to make a case to secure the remaining two unallocated /8 blocks of IPv4 addresses. OK, now what? Well this event, the policies around it and its ramifications were elegantly presented by Elise Gerich, Vice President, IANA and…

Well, I for one is happy it’s over. Not in a bad way but gogoNET LIVE! consumed such a big part of my time and the time of others in gogo6 that putting it behind us means we are now free to focus on other priorities. But in the end it was definitely worth it.
On the plus side we had top-notch speakers that flew in from all over the world to share their v6 experiences. The event location was fun, the show ran smoothly and most important, conversations at the…

We hope to make gogoNET LIVE! a little different than most conferences by integrating the show with our gogoNET social network. Key in this is to change the dynamic between conference speaker and audience/attendee.
Each speaker’s profile page on gogoNET will soon contain their biography and a blog that provides information on the presentation they will be delivering at the show. This allows the audience to ask questions, make suggestions or start up a…

When you sign up for gogoNET we ask a few questions such as, what network you’re migrating, where you are in the migration path, your job, etc... We ask these questions to kick-start your professional profile on gogoNET. The idea is, say you’re migrating your company’s mobile network to IPv6 and you are in the middle of building your test network. You, it turns out, are pretty much the company IPv6 expert. So where do you go for help? Who can you bounce ideas off? Well... you go to the…

I’m currently in Beijing to speak at the
v6 show and to visit some customers and prospects. The Global IPv6 and Next Generation Internet Summit 2010, which ended yesterday, was well run and full of great content from all the major players in China’s IPv6 scene. This includes the government, first and foremost followed closely behind by the four major operators: China Telecom, China Mobile, China Unicom and Cernet. The buzz at the show…

We have this semi-funny cartoon called
Paper Bag Head that tries to convey the message that there’s value in adding you picture to your profile on gogoNET. While in Bangkok I can say I experienced this value first hand... or should I say face to face.
The day before I was having a drink in my hotel lobby with Surapong, the country manager of our Thai sales partner FDS, discussing our upcoming meetings. While sipping my Lion…

Joy (pronounced Joey) and I had just driven an hour and a half through the rain and humidity on what should have been a 45 minute jaunt to meet with Che-Nan of Taiwan’s National Center for High-performance Computing. After signing in at the front desk the building’s lethargic security guard/receptionist pulls himself up and nonchalantly pressed an electronic gun to Joy’s forehead and pulls the trigger. After the click he moves toward me. As my mind flashes graining video of some…

Looking back I’m satisfied with the two well spent days at the first Texas IPv6 meeting held in Houston on Tuesday and Wednesday. While attendance was lower than expected I thought the quality of the presentations was quite high. I haven’t been to a U.S. based show in so long that I forgot how much I get from the presentations.…

I used to travel internationally for sales trips with Hexago about once a quarter. Most of the travel was in Asia because this is where we saw most progress from the organizations (mostly ISPs and research bodies right now) who buy our products. This is also where we have the most sales representatives and sales partners, again for the same reason. Since starting gogo6 things have been so busy that there wasn't the time to take 2+ weeks away from the office but now that gogoNET has been…

It has been only two weeks since we launched the site and already I am finding my work habits changing. I was never a big Facebook or ... name your SNS fan, mostly because I was too busy with work. An email to keep in touch with friends is my communication method of choice because it is uni-directional and I can get to everyone whenever I have time... But for business I'm finding myself doing about 25% of my communications through gogoNET already. It's interactive nature is more efficient than…

After months of development we are proud to introduce the successor to go6.net called gogoNET. Kind of a web 2.0 version of go6.net, it is a social network and services for professionals to go v6. We will be entering invitational beta next week, open beta a few weeks after that and then we will officially launch the site in November.
We had the same vision for go6.net then as we do for gogoNET today: to create an online meeting place where v6 professionals can go to learn about…

Well it’s official, our new company gogo6 is up and running! In a deal that took six long months to complete, gogo6 is taking over from where Hexago left off. You’ve probably heard the saying, “it’s a marathon, not a sprint.” Well in the case of IPv6 it’s a long distance relay race, not a marathon.
When Hexago was founded it was believed the migration to v6 was only a few years away. It was believed that the path there was v4 -> dual stack -> v6. But when the network engineers…

A few years ago we exhibited at the GSMA Mobile Asia Congress in Macau. We reasoned that the increased popularity in smart phones would drive the mobile operators to require an IP address in every handset. This internal conclusion was supported by discussions with our Japanese customers with large mobile networks on the difficulties of managing overlapping addresses in "ten" networks and the work that was going on at the 3GPP standards committee on the requirement of IPv6 for IMS…
