[OmniOS-discuss] OmniOS and USGv6 compliance

Hello,

I learned recently that US government agencies cannot purchase equipment
that connects to their network unless said equipment is proven to work with
IPv6.

Suppliers must submit a Supplier's Declaration of Conformity (SDOC) which
shows that an accredited testing lab has qualified various IPv6
functionality. You can read more about it here:

Our company won a bid to sell a storage server to a government agency.
We were planning on supplying a system built on OmniOS. I've just learned
from one of these accredited testing labs (UNH InterOperability Lab) that
OmniOS does not have an SDOC.

If we were to sell an Omni server to this government agency then OmniOS
would need to be tested at UNH IOL to produce an SDOC.

Has anyone in this list run into this issue before?
Is there any way around it?
We'd really prefer to use OmniOS in this particular build. I'd love to hear
your ideas.

Best Regards,

Jeff Berkembrock
