6TAP
The 6TAP project, co-sponsored by ESnet and CANARIE, provides native and tunneled IPv6 interconnections at STAR TAP, to provide early IPv6
production networks the ability to build and demonstrate IPv6-based
applications. In addition, the 6TAP will develop: IPv6 route server
technology, network tools for network measurement, analysis and
display, and experience in supporting, provisioning and operating IPv6
Internet exchange points.
The 6TAP routers, route servers and net measurement/management
systems are co-located with the STAR TAP switching systems to allow native
router IPv6 interconnections to STAR TAP attached networks. The 6TAP became
operational in July 1999, and is supported on a 24x7 operational basis by ESnet
network operations staff at Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory, USA.
