The connection will give test participants a native, non-tunneled connection to Moonv6 via MCI's MAE Services network exchange points. MCI's MAE infrastructure facilitates nationwide Layer 2 interconnectivity and public peering between Internet service providers. MAE Services connection points are located in San Jose, Los Angeles, New York, Dallas, Chicago, metro Washington, D.C. and Miami (first quarter 2005). The Moonv6 project is a global effort led by the North American IPv6 Task Force that includes industry leaders, the UNH-IOL, Internet2, the Joint Interoperability Test Command (JITC) and other government agencies, the Defense Research & Engineering Network (DREN) and the High Performance Computing Modernization Program (HPCMP). http://www.mci.com http://www.nav6tf.org 31-Jan-05 In November 2004, The Moonv6 project, a collaborative effort between the NAv6TF (North American IPv6 Task Force), the UNH-IOL, government agencies and Internet2, completed a new round of interoperability tests aimed at advancing IPv6 testing into new territory. The latest round of testing, which began at the UNH-IOL on October 30 and wrapped up at the U.S. Defense Department's Joint Interoperability Test Command (JITC) in Fort Huachuca, Arizona on November 12, represented the most aggressive multi-vendor test and demonstration of IPv6 products to date, encompassing voice, wireless, firewalls and application-layer connectivity. Test areas included interoperability in pure IPv6 as well as mixed v6 and IPv4 networks, IEEE 802.11 wireless LANs, VoIP, firewalls and IPsec, dual-stack routing, Internet protocols such as DHCP, DNS and various applications and transition mechanisms.     Learn How to Get Your Video on this Site Recent Service Provider News NTT Surpasses 12.8 Million Optical Access Lines 2/5/2010 Level 3 to Deliver 1.5 Gbps Uncompressed HD Video Feed from Super Bowl 2/2/2010 SAIC Wins $52 Million Network Contract with NSF 2/1/2010 Nokia and Pearson form wireless educational venture in China 2/1/2010 Sprint Supports Tango Networks' Mobile UC 2/1/2010 AT&T Gives Update on Network Upgrade Programs 1/29/2010 AT&T U-verse Voice Service Reaches 1 Million Lines 1/28/2010 AT&T Adds 2.7 million Wireless Subscribers in Q4 2009 1/28/2010 BT Offers Flat Rate Global Video Exchange Pricing 1/28/2010 AT&T to Provide 7.2 Mbps 3G Service for Apple's iPad 1/27/2010 XO Activates South Texas Gateway Serving Mexico 1/27/2010 Verizon Integrates International and U.S. Wholesale Teams 1/27/2010 Haiti's Voila to Double International Capacity, 90% of Cell Sites Online 1/27/2010 Level 3 Provides Backbone for TDS Telecom 1/26/2010 Verizon Sees Growth in Wireless Data, But Posts Loss on Labor Costs 1/26/2010 > More news...   Search  this site   Search the Web   Get Your Column Published LTE -- What Voice Services? by Jose Deras Framing the Next Wave of Carrier Ethernet by Umesh Kukreja Network Interconnection and Evolution for Super Carriers by Dawn M.
