Hi Jim, re: Will IPv6 do anything to address this problem? Yes, there are claims that it will, but I do not know any comparison figures to give. Most likely the advantages will be minimal at first because IPv6 won't be implemented end-to-end, except on a few select routes. The reasons for the potential of improved latency, if I recall, were related to v6's lack of fragmentation in the core, better route aggregation, and flow labels. There are IPv6 versions of all the routing protocols, as well as DHCP and ICMP. I'm not very fluent in all the ins and outs of IPv6 (and all the associated protocol revisions to v6) yet, so maybe someone out there that is, can better answer your question. I'm not counting IPv6 tunnels thru IPv4 networks as E2E.
