I am wanting to mess with IPv6 for teaching purposes. The problem is my ISP is not currently IPv6 ready. So I was going to use a tunnel broker from Hurricane Electric to solve the problem. The one concern I have is that my performance is going to tank because I am adding more "stuff" in between my router and the destination.
For a server rack mainly used for teaching purposes is my thoughts of performance not really something to worry about?
My connection is a Time Warner Business Class 10 down / 2 up.
I will mainly be using SSH, RDP, VMware vSphere Client, HP iLO, and maybe the occasional minecraft server.
Any input would be great.
If this is a server in a managed data center then I would suggest that you demand ipv6 connectivity at no charge. There are enough data centers that already do that. If they refuse then it's time to move. Running over a tunnel is fine if you can get an SLA that you're okay with. Free tunnels obviously don't come with any SLA at all.
