IPv6 support by wifi systems



Access point support from many vendors seems okay. But another vendor gap
on IPv6 is WiFi AAA, policy servers, and tunnel servers from vendors like
Ericsson and ALU. I hope to see richer IPv6 support for these aspects of
WiFi (helpful for those operating lots of outdoor WiFi systems for
example).
