7 IANA - Internet Assigned Numbers Authority RIR - Regional Internet registry * There is a very good chance it will run out this year What Is The Problem and Why? Without enough IP Leases and the Data Tsunami It Affects Subscribers Acquisition It Affects Connection Hungry VAS Applications It Affect Carrier/Service Providers Revenue growth

8 Facing IPv6 implementation In the progress migrating from IPv4 to IPv6 Initial status Everything is IPv4 Transition mix of IPv4-only IPv4-IPv6 dual stack IPv6-only terminals End status: Everything is IPv6

10 DNS to the rescue … Users don’t remember IPs – they remember names A record: -> www.google.com AAAA record: -> 2a00:1450:4008:c00::69www.google.com But only if request is coming from IPv6…

14 ALG – Application Layer Gateway BigIP take decisions on L7 traffic for the following applications: SIP RTP/RTCP/RTSP HTTP, HTTPS FTP Diameter RADIUS XML DNS

15 IPv6 and IPv4 interoperability BIG-IP NATs, SNATs, and Virtual Servers can automatically serve as gateways between IPv6 and IPv4 networks. NATs, SNATs, and Virtual Servers can also run in autonomous IPv4 and IPv6 : IPv6 client to IPv4 node/pool member IPv4 client to IPv6 node/pool member IPv4 client to IPv4 node/pool member IPv6 client to IPv6 node/pool member
