2+
3+ ## Summary
4+
5+ All IBP members must provide IPv6 addresses for their endpoints by January 31,
6+ 2026 .
7+
8+ ## Motivation
9+
10+ JAM is an IPv6-only network planned for launch Q3 2026. IBP proxies must support
11+ IPv6 by Q1 2026 to be JAM-ready.
12+
13+ ## Why All Members
14+
15+ AAAA records override A records in DNS resolution. If only partial members
16+ provide IPv6 addresses, GeoDNS will route to the reduced set of IPv6-capable
17+ endpoints. This degrades latency and coverage for all users as fewer geographic
18+ endpoints are available.
19+
20+ 100% member adoption is required to maintain current service quality when IPv6
21+ is enabled.
22+
23+ ## Proposal
24+
25+ | Requirement | Deadline |
26+ | ---| ---|
27+ | All members submit IPv6 addresses to config | January 31, 2026 |
28+ | IPv6 endpoints operational and reachable | January 31, 2026 |
29+
30+ Members not compliant by deadline become ineligible for bandwidth reimbursement
31+ at RFC-014 rates until compliant.
32+
33+ ## Rationale
34+
35+ JAM's IPv6-only architecture requires IBP infrastructure to be fully
36+ IPv6-capable before launch. Q1 2026 compliance gives 6 months buffer before Q3
37+ 2026 JAM launch for testing and integration.
