Obstacles:
1. What are the biggest obstacles
related to IPv6 implementation? For
example, is it difficult to access
adequate vendor support for IPv6
hardware and/or software? Does
successful implementation depend
directly on another service provider?
2. How does an organization
overcome those obstacles?
Incentives:
1. What factors contribute to an
organization’s decision to implement
IPv6?
2. What additional incentives would
be helpful in a decision to implement
IPv6?
3. If one factor made the crucial
difference in deciding to implement
IPv6, as opposed to not implementing
IPv6, what is that factor?
Motivation:
1. What is typically the driving
motivation behind an organization’s
decision to implement IPv6?
2. What are the job titles and/or roles
of the people within an organization
typically involved in a decision to
implement IPv6? What are those
individuals’ primary motivations when
it comes to implementing IPv6?
Return on Investment:
1. What is the anticipated return on
an IPv6-related investment? How
quickly is a return on investment
expected?
2. Is return on investment a reason to
implement IPv6, or is implementation
considered a cost of doing business?
Implementation:
1. How long does the planning
process for IPv6 implementation take?
2. How long does actual
implementation of IPv6 typically take?
Is implementation a single event or
evolutionary?
Cost of Implementation:
1. What are the different types of costs
involved in implementing IPv6? What
are the typical magnitudes of each type
of cost?
2. How does an organization cover
those costs?
3. How does an organization justify
those costs?
4. What considerations are there for
cost-saving?
5. What implication does the size of
an organization implementing IPv6 have
on cost?
Promotional Efforts:
1. What promotional efforts, if any,
should NTIA take? What would have

2. What promotional efforts, if any,
are being led by the private sector? Have
they been effective?

Additional Issues: NTIA invites
commenters to provide any additional
information on other issues not
identified in this RFC that could

the considerations that organizations
take into account when deciding to
proceed with IPv6 implementation, as
well as future IPv6 promotional efforts
that NTIA may undertake.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Background
Over the last few years, many
financial institutions, credit card
issuers, and other companies have
offered consumers free access to a credit
score giving consumers an important
tool to manage their financial lives. The
Office of Financial Education of the
Consumer Financial Protection Bureau
(‘‘the Bureau’’), established under
Section 1013(d)(1) of Dodd-Frank,
would like to highlight and build
consumer awareness of this practice. A
core part of the mission of the Bureau
is educating and empowering
consumers to take more control over
their financial lives. The Bureau
believes that enabling consumers to see
their credit scores can be a first step
