DHCPv6 is the foundation for many IPv6 deployments, we have seen the use
of the same grow significantly over the past 3-5 years!


DHCPv6 has proven to be scalable and production ready from this adopters
point of view, we have indeed come along way.

Today 5% of our customer base, and growing, are actively provisioned and
IPv6 enabled care of DHCPv6.
