15. INTERNET PROTOCOL VERSION SIX (IPv6): In accordance with FAR 11.002(g) and joint NASA Chief Information Officer (CIO) / NASA Associate Administrator for Procurement “Policies to Ensure IPv6 Compliance for Information Technology (IT) Purchases”, this acquisition requires all functionality, capabilities and features to be supported and operational in both a dual-stack IPv4/IPv6 environment and an IPv6 only environment. Furthermore, all management, user interfaces, configuration options, reports and other administrative capabilities that support IPv4 functionality will support comparable IPv6 functionality. Respondents are required to include in their response, either a letter declaring that no product in this acquisition is dependent on either IPv4 or IPv6 to function and does not apply, or include a letter of self-certification that their product has been tested in both a dual-stack IPv4/IPv6 and IPv6 only environment and meets this requirement. NASA reserves the right to require the respondent’s products to be tested within an agency or 3rd party test facility to show compliance with this requirement.

In addition, all interested parties responding to this acquisition are required to provide a Self- Declaration of Conformance (SDOC) based on the USGv6 Profile and Testing Program in accordance with NIST SP 500-267, NIST SP-273, and NIST SP 500-281.
