I believe implementing line rate IPSEC on a CPE requires silicon that accelerates the crypto algorithms, and this may be a good feature but is outside the budget of most consumers who don't need much beyond SSL/TLS embedded in their HTTP client. So making IPSEC optional is more practical to LIRs needing low cost CPE solutions. And to answer the question below, I know one low cost IPv6 CPE vendor on RIPE's CPE Survey who doesn't support IPSEC, but haven't checked them all. -Ahmed -------------------------------------------------- From: "Jan Zorz" <jan at pragma.si> Sent: Thursday, July 21, 2011 12:48 AM To: <ipv6-wg at ripe.net> Subject: Re: [ipv6-wg] RIPE-501 and IPSEC on CPEs > On 7/20/11 8:54 PM, Jan Zorz @ go6.si wrote: >> I feel to agree with this statement... >> >> what percentage of CPEs we "throw out" if we make this optional? > sorry, mandatory, not optional. typo. > > so, what percentage of CPEs we "throw out" if we make this mandatory? > > cheers, Jan >
