IETF IPv6 WorkGroup began in early 90s, to solve addressing growth issues, but CIDR, NAT,… were developed IPv4 32 bits address = 4 billion hosts ~40% of the IPv4 address space is still unused BUT IP is everywhere Data, Voice, Audio and Video integration is a Reality Regional Registries apply a strict allocation control Addressing scheme is not optimum as for any

Deployment of the Production IPv6 Internet In order to build the production IPv6 Internet, IPv6 address space must be available The 6Bone uses test addresses Regional registries are giving IPv6 “production” prefixes to ISPs based on a common policy

IPv6 Address Registries As in IPv4, the address space is managed by the regional registries: Asia Pacific Network Information Center (APNIC) American Registry for Internet Numbers (ARIN) Réseaux IP Européens—Network Coordination Center (RIPE-NCC) Registries are based on geographical location.

IPv6 Address Allocation Policy The registries have an allocation policy: It is identical, but prices and management can be different It was reviewed by IETF and by a public consultation process Addresses are only given to ISPs, not to enterprises Address allocation started on July 1999 Policy can change over time

9. 999 NCM-230 3046_05_2001_c1 © 2001, Cisco Systems, Inc. All rights reserved. Address Allocation The allocation process is: IANA allocates 2001::/16 to registries Each registry gets a /23 prefix from IANA Registry allocates a /35 prefix to a new IPv6 ISP ISP allocates a /48 prefix to each customer 2001 0410 ISP prefix Site prefix LAN prefix /35 /48/64 Registry /23
