Been going through IPv6 ATC videos by INE, wondering if an individual can register or apply for a personal IPv6 provider independent (PI) space? You know, since there is so much of it. I’d imagine everyone could pay a small fee and register them, much like we do with domain names.

APNIC application form seems to only favour corporate/LIRs. Anyway, I have applied for a /48, lets see if that goes through. Have used and experimented with Tunnel broker by HE.net and it was a pretty nice introduction to IPv6 in real world. I was able to deploy this on my DD-WRT wifi router and a pair of Juniper SSG5 firewalls that I have at home.

Even if you had only a laptop connected to the internet, you could use their guide to play with IPv6.

I did not receive any response to my application. But I read some more – it looks like there is a steep price to pay, like $500 annually to hold this. No thanks!
