IPv6 Support among commercial firewalls (survey request)

Hello,

ICANN's Security and Stability Advisory Committee (SSAC) is conducting a 
survey regarding the availability of IPv6 support among commercial 
firewalls and security systems.

This is an update of a survey we conducted in 2007 (results are posted 
at http://www.icann.org/en/committees/security/sac021.pdf). In that 
survey, we asked vendors for product information. This year, we are 
inviting business users of commercial firewalls to answer a similar set 
of questions: specifically,

• Are user organizations that have adopted IPv6 using commercial
   firewalls to protect their networks?
• What features are user organizations employing when they deploy
   firewalls in IPv6 networks?
• Are user organizations finding that the security services they
   used at IPv4 firewalls are available for IPv6 transport as well?
• Are user organizations satisfied that commercial firewalls can
   enforce the same security policy whether IPv6 or IPv4 transport
   is used?

As was the case for the 2007 survey, we will analyze and publish 
aggregated responses. We will aggregate and analyze vendor results 
separately from user organization responses. We will compare the 2010 
vendor responses against the 2007 responses to measure how availability 
has changed since the first survey.

The formal public announcement for the survey is posted at ICANN at
http://www.icann.org/en/announcements/announcement-2-01mar10-en.htm

You are invited to participate in the survey online at:

The survey will be open for participation until 1 May 2010.
