New F Root Server, now also IPv6 enabled
16.07.2009
As mentioned in recent announcements relating to the +Raices Project (http://lacnic.net/en/anuncios/2009_rootserver-sintmaarten.html), the installation of a new F Root Server in our region was completed earlier this month. We refer, specifically, to the Root Server that was installed in St. Maarten, thus becoming the first Root Server in the Caribbean.
Now, just a few days later, the new version of the Internet Protocol, IPv6, has been enabled for the services that this Root Server provides to the Community. This not only contributes to improve Internet user access, but also represents a new step towards global IPv6 deploymen.

Did you know...?
The field ‘Total Lengh’which is part of the IPv4 header, is not found in the IPv6 header. Its function was to count the size of the packet payload plus the size of a variable lenght header. As the IPv6 header has a fixed size, the presence of this field is unnecessary.
