Linux Kernel Ready for IPv6
Linux Kernel is ready for the incoming IPv6 compliance with Defense Information System Agency’s IPv6 Special Interoperability Certification, according to Linux Foundation. This means that all Linux distributions that run the updated Linux kernel should be able to pass the certification.
Although there a lot more features to work on the IPv6 of Linux kernel these past few years, which includes Internet Control Message Protocol, Internet Protocol Security, Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol and Management Information Base, engineers are working together to address the shortcomings. Engineers from HP, Nokia-Siemens, Novell and Red Hat got their hands dirty in getting the IPv6 into full swing.
Joint Interoperability Test Command (JITC) has already certified two Linux distributions: Novell’s Suse Linux Enterprise (SLES10) and Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL 5.2).
