Equipment makers are zeroing in on improving performance for gear running the next-generation protocol of the Internet.

On Monday, Foundry plans to announce a hardware upgrade to switches supporting Internet Protocol version 6 (IPv6) to make sure they don't suffer from performance issues. The company is introducing the new capability in switching modules for its two newest high-end switches, the BigIron MG8 and NetIron 40G.
