IPv6 over the Silk Satellite Network

The Silk network is a VSAT-based network connecting a number of NRENs in Central Asia and the Caucasus into the Internet. While most of the network uses IPv4, this paper discusses how it was possible to provide native IPv6 facilities onto the Network. Our initial experiences with that system are described.
