AFAIK IPv6 is still on track for the next major FCX software release coming
out in the next few months.
FESX4xx won't ever get IPv6 routing as the "4" in FESX4 stands for
hardware-based IPv4 routing. If you need IPv6 routing in the FESX, you must
use a FESX6 box. (Or any of the other v6-capable platforms like NetIron,
BigIron, and FastIron 6-series). I believe FESX4xx "Switch" code can be
managed over IPv6, but it's not routing v6, you're just managing it over v6.
I do not believe there are any plans for software-based v6 routing on
FESX4xx platforms.

what about fesx 4xx switches? will they receive an upgrade too?
(of course, i know about fesx6xx switches and am willing to take a
performance penalty)
