business case description. Do not reword Detailed Problem
Description from above. What are the benefits to be gained by your
company, and the vendor and others?
Quantify: run time, dollars, manpower, etc. Why should the vendor do this for the customer?)
By end of 2008, the US federal government will
require agencies doing business with them to support IPv6-based transmissions.
None of the current VM TCP clients or servers support IPv6 transports, and the
VM TCPIP stack does not perform PAT or protocol translation. For VM TCP to
remain viable, the applications must support IPv6.
Solution: (Optional)(Desired/undesired elements Note: Making a suggestion may limit a

Impact: (Optional) (How
will your company’s business be affected if a solution is not delivered?)
VM TCP based solutions will be excluded from
federal contracts/sites as non-conformant.
