Internode Service Provider (ISP) Internode has announced it has doubled the number of its users on the IPv6 platform, joining the world’s four most visited websites - Google, Facebook, YouTube and Yahoo! – as a key participant in World IPv6 Launch Day.

 

Internode managing director Simon Hackett said he commended IPv6 to websites, manufacturers and Internet Service Providers. “IPv6 is now ready for prime time,” he said.

 

“During the past five years, Internode has acquired a great deal of understanding from deploying IPv6 on our national and international broadband networks, thereby providing a risk-free pathway for our customers when they use IPv6."

 

“The most important lesson for Internode is that done right, customers will not even notice the change to IPv6. Internode commends the World IPv6 Launch as the time that website publishers, other Internet Service Providers and all companies manufacturing equipment for Internet access should also enable IPv6 access by default.”
