heard that many times ;-)
may I ask (the list) two questions:

a) need for fragmented DNS_over_IPv6 inbound into an enterprise network (as opposed to a SP environment)?
b) as you, Fernando, like to ask: any real-world numbers here anybody? [amount/numbers/percentage of fragmented DNS_over_IPv6 traffic]

thanks

Enno
