IPv6 can use without IPsec. Also, you can use IPsec without IPv6. I blame IPv6-advocates for adding "security" to the "feature list" for IPv6, in an attempt to make it more attractive. The only real feature IPv6 adds is more addresses. There are a few simplifications that you can make when you don't have to worry about running out of addresses, and these are part of IPv6. But security (and quality of service) is just as easy in IPv4 as in IPv6. - -- Shane -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.7 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFHGGPtMsfZxBO4kbQRAp0UAKClQGfgNnZgRm3gCkeicErb9idnRwCgkI62 PXBXY5BC8BXBT8mGY/KCT2g= =QUMA -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
