Teleglobe International Holdings Ltd (NASDAQ:TLGB), a leading
provider of international telecommunications services to Internet
service providers and to fixed and mobile network operators, and
Hexago, a leading provider of IPv6 deployment solutions, today
announced that Teleglobe is now exclusively hosting Freenet6,
Hexago's IPv6 over IPv4 tunnel broker in Montreal. Since 1999
Freenet6 has been the service of choice for developers in the
industry and amongst telecommunication carriers around the world to
test their IPv6 implementations in a real network environment. More
than 150,000 tunnels have been set up to Freenet6 and continue to
expand with the accelerating adoption of IPv6. "The Freenet6
servers were moved to Teleglobe's network in order to bring
Freenet6 closer to a major artery of the global Internet and
improve the quality and speed of connections," said Sylvie
LaPerriere, Director of Marketing for Teleglobe's Data & IP
Services. "The move emphasizes Hexago's continuing support of
Freenet6 and Teleglobe's commitment to the IPv6 networking world.
We are excited that Hexago has chosen Teleglobe to help them push
the IPv6 envelope." "Teleglobe's reputation for global reach and
quality in their IP backbone as well as their IPv6 expertise made
it easy for us to choose them to host Freenet6," said Marc
Blanchet, CTO, Hexago. "We look forward to continuing the adoption
of IPv6 with Teleglobe." Freenet6, powered by Hexago's Migration
Broker, connects users worldwide to the new Internet with
cutting-edge features such as a permanent IPv6 address and prefix,
as well as DNS registration and reverse delegation. The advanced
NAT traversal features of Freenet6 allow users to trial and
experience the unique aspects of peer to peer IP communication and
mobility. Freenet6 assigns a single IPv6 address and a DNS name to
every user, making their PC reachable from anywhere on the IPv6
Internet. A full /48 prefix may also be assigned to a router,
enabling the distribution of IPv6 connectivity to an entire
network. These capabilities, as well as SNMP monitoring and the
ability to authenticate users and fetch address delegation data
from a Radius server can be deployed directly by ISP's, Carriers,
Government organizations and Enterprises using the Migration Broker
within their network. Teleglobe's global IP network supports a wide
variety of advanced data and IP services including global IP
transit, international private leased circuits (IPLs), bandwidth
capacity, and broadcast services. Teleglobe has ownership in over
