This document provides a detailed description of IPv6 deployment and
integration methods and scenarios in today's Service Provider (SP)
Broadband (BB) networks in coexistence with deployed IPv4 services.
Cable/HFC, BB Ethernet, xDSL, and WLAN are the main BB technologies
that are currently deployed, and discussed in this document.  The
emerging Broadband Power Line Communications (PLC/BPL) access
technology is also discussed for completeness.  In this document we
will discuss main components of IPv6 BB networks, their differences
from IPv4 BB networks, and how IPv6 is deployed and integrated in
each of these networks using tunneling mechanisms and native IPv6.  This 
memo provides information for the Internet community.

This document is a product of the IPv6 Operations
Working Group of the IETF.
