STATUS (GOVT)

Infocomm Development Authority of Singapore, IDA

Vision for Infocomm Technology Roadmap “For home technologies to take off, these technologies

….., and that deployment of IPv6 is critical to meet the demand for address, QoS and security”

Actively soliciting IPv6 deployment status from the industry

Possibly some IDA lead initiatives on IPv6 in the near future
