Dear All,
As discussed yesterday, if you have an IPv6 allocation please could you complete the additional allocation column in the table: https://www.gridpp.ac.uk/wiki/IPv6_site_status.
This helps us track what is happening across the sites but may also be useful for those sites who are still negotiating with their University.
Many thanks,
Jeremy
