EUROPEAN IPv6 DAY - 30 May 2008 |
|
The Information Society and Media Directorate General of the European Commission is pleased to invite you to the "European IPv6 Day" that will take place in Brussels, Belgium, on the 30th of May of 2008 at the Robert Schuman room inside the Berlaymont building. The event will see the launch of the Communication "Advancing the Internet action plan for the deployment of Internet Protocol version 6 (IPv6) in Europe".
The main goal of the Communication is to promote IPV6 adoption through a wide range of actions encouraging public administration, users and industrial stakeholders to take decisive steps to accelerate the implementation of IPv6, so as to ensure Europe's readiness to face the expected depletion of the IPv4 addresses. Moreover, the prompt and efficient adoption of IPv6 offers Europe significant opportunities to boost innovation and develop a leading role in advancing the Internet.
The IPv6 Launch Event will involve several key stakeholders including representatives from industry, large users and policy makers. The draft agenda is available HERE.

IPv6 Ready Logo White Paper |
|
The main objective of this present document is to describe the IPv6 Forum
IPv6 Ready Logo Program, to describe the IPv6
Ready Test Specifications and IPv6 Ready Logo Phase Series and to provide a
FAQ.
The IPv6 Ready ( http://www.ipv6ready.org/) Logo Program provides conformance
and interoperability test specifications based on open standards to support
IPv6 deployment across the globe. Effective testing of IPv6 products is of
critical importance in ensuring the deployment, interoperability, security
and reliability of the IPv6 infrastructure.

ARIN Board Advises Internet Community on Migration to IPv6
Posted: Mon, 21 May 2007
ARIN and the other Regional Internet Registries have distributed Internet Protocol version 6, IPv6, alongside IPv4 since 1999. To date, ARIN has issued both protocol versions in tandem and has not advocated one over the other. ARIN has closely monitored trends in demand and distribution for both protocol versions with the understanding that the IPv4 available resource pool would continue to diminish.
The available IPv4 resource pool has now been reduced to the point that ARIN is compelled to advise the Internet community that migration to IPv6 is necessary for any applications that require ongoing availability from ARIN of contiguous IP number resources.
On 7 May 2007, the ARIN Board of Trustees passed the following resolution:
RESOLUTION OF THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES OF ARIN ON INTERNET PROTOCOL NUMBERING RESOURCE AVAILABILITY
WHEREAS, community access to Internet Protocol (IP) numbering Resources has proved essential to the successful growth of the Internet; and,
WHEREAS, ongoing community access to Internet Protocol version 4 (IPv4) numbering resources can not be assured indefinitely; and,
WHEREAS, Internet Protocol version 6 (IPv6) numbering resources are available and suitable for many Internet applications,
BE IT RESOLVED, that this Board of Trustees hereby advises the Internet community that migration to IPv6 numbering resources is necessary for any applications which require ongoing availability from ARIN of contiguous IP numbering resources; and,
BE IT ORDERED, that this Board of Trustees hereby directs ARIN staff to take any and all measures necessary to assure veracity of applications to ARIN for IPv4 numbering resources; and,
BE IT RESOLVED, that this Board of Trustees hereby requests the ARIN Advisory Council to consider Internet Numbering Resource Policy changes advisable to encourage migration to IPv6 numbering resources where possible.
Implementation of this resolution will include both internal and external components. Internally, ARIN will review its resource request procedures and continue to provide policy experience reports to the Advisory Council. Externally, ARIN will send progress announcements to the ARIN community as well as the wider technical audience, government agencies, and media outlets. ARIN will produce new documentation, from basic introductory fact sheets to FAQs on how this resolution will affect users in the region. ARIN will focus on IPv6 in many of its general outreach activities, such as speaking engagements, trade shows, and technical community meetings.

Metronet6

An example of MetroNet6 is as follows. In a U.S. city or town the State Police, Fireman, Hospital 911 Personnel, Local Police, and any other required Local Authorities would have Handheld Devices that would have their own Metropolitan Network (MetroNet6) for Voice, Video, Graphics, Intelligence, Medical, and other forms of data through multimedia communications 24x7x365. This MetroNet6 would emulate a Command Control Center, using Moonv6 www.moonv6.org, over the Internet to an emulated National Homeland Security Office securely for communications updates. The MetroNet6 would support both wireless and wireline technology as the physical medium for communications and the integration of wireless and wireline so either can be used on the MetroNet6. The MetroNet6 would support the ability for a command center to be established in an Ad Hoc manner to communicate with the MetroNet6 Homeland Security force and emulatedNational Homeland Security Office using wireless or wireline communications. In addition, the MetroNet6 over time should be able to add additional Ad Hoc Sub-Networks in as required such as the emulation National Guard, Air Command, or other U.S. Agencies that must connect to the MetroNet6 during a 911 disaster.

Recent large catastrophes and crisis situations like the Tsunami at the end of 2004 and the Katrina hurricane of September 2005 dramatically showed the importance of communication to prevent the deaths of thousands of people. The global warming and global dimming are a poignant reality now and addressing them is indeed not a trivial task at all fronts. Based on the u-2010 vision, several critical issues and solutions will be discussed: Circle vision: Preparedness, Alert, Response, Recovery, Post-disaster, Prevention & Mitigation; Integrated data, voice and video involved during accidents, emergencies, catastrophes and crises; Real time updated digital directories; Harmonised National standardized Protocols; Virtual crisis centres; Access of government to GSM/UMTS location registers; Access to essential assets; Cellular on wheels over satellite stations; Networking everything over IP (IPv4-IPv6).

Dear Members,
The IPv6 Forum Officers requested a meeting with the IPv6 Forum Regional Leaders (not Regional Sub Task Forces) and the IPv6 Forum CTO Executive Committee to meet in Las Vegas February 21-23, 2006 in Las Vegas, NV, USA. We had world wide participation and it was quite successful.
What we did is identify the IPv6 Forum mission and focus out to 2010, and the attached report reflects the result and direction. This is a living document and will be updated every six months. The current version is accessible as pdf: here .
We want to thank all the IPv6 Forum Regional Leaders world wide that attended and a special thanks to three key significant contributors as writers to this document Yanick Pouffary, Yurie Rich, and Dave Green. This leadership forum now called "Leaders Forum" put a lot of work and energy into this collaborative effort world wide.
Best to all of you,
/jim and Latif

OECD Discussion Forum - IPv6 Forum Contribution

The IPv6 Forum has contributed to an OECD discussion within a workshop on the future of the Internet. Latif Ladid, IPv6 Forum President, and Jim Bound, IPv6 Forum Chief Technology Officer, responded to a number of questions, along with input from Mark Handley, who added "The problem is that addressing is the most fundamental part of the Internet, and it is through addressing (as reflected in routing protocols, etc) that almost all policy is expressed by Internet providers. As we run out of IPv4 addresses, the Internet won't come crashing to a halt. But the technical options will narrow. The effect is that this stiffles what is possible, not only technically, but also from an economic and public policy point of view too."
