Global Crossing is the leading provider of IPv6

Global Crossing was the first-and remains the only-global communications provider with IPv6 natively deployed in both its private and public backbone networks; the company is uniquely qualified to enable a transition to IPv6. IPv6 provides greater scalability, higher levels of security and better support for IP convergence, and more features for fixed-mobile convergence, multi-media collaboration, and multi-casting applications.

In the United States, one of the key drivers of IPv6 technology is the government, which has mandated that all federal civilian agencies add IPv6 technology to their backbones by June 2008 (for more information, please see "IPv6 Ready - Making The Transition By 2008"). Added impetus for implementing IPv6 comes from countries that face a shortage of IP addresses under the IPv4 protocol, especially in Asia, where IPv6 adoption is necessitated and in some cases mandated.
