1. IPv6 TF-NGN 8 Berlin, 2 nd July 2002

2. Agenda Review GTPv6 status D9.6 GEANT deliverable Presentations from participants –JOIN, RENATER, POZNAN 6NET –Outputs, status, and urgent work required GEANT Y3 work (=> IPv6 on GEANT) –Define workplan

3. GTPv6 ongoing tasks Running own tests and mini-network –IPv6 multicast, interoperability –D9.6 GEANT deliverable, August 31 2002. Working with/on 6NET project –Understandably 6NET is getting the IPv6 focus –NRENs not involved with 6NET Developing work plan for IPv6 on GEANT –Migration to dual-stack on Juniper routers –Need to plan, define and schedule tests –Dual-stack within 12 months? Web site updates(!)

4. GEANT Deliverable D9.6 –Due 31 st August 2002 – need authoring help/volunteers Contents: –Experiments report Report on operation of Juniper M5 router IPv6 multicast –Implement international infrastructure for use by 6NET 2.5Gbit/s links (due for 6NET Y2, January 2003) –Study the results of 6NET applicability to GEANT IPv6 migration (to dual-stack mode) –Test interoperation between Cisco, Juniper and other router platforms (Hitachi at Southampton)

5. Participant status/presentations 6WIN presentation –Christian (JOIN) –Bernard (RENATER) –Tomasz + Bart (POZNAN) Other inputs?

6. 6NET outputs Public documents on www.6net.org: –MIPv6 review –Routing architecture (IS-IS), DNS service –List of applications to be run –Slides of Limerick 6NET-Euro6IX workshop Ongoing: –Transition review (site, NREN, core) –List of management and monitoring tools

7. 6NET network Core network is live and running See: –http://www.6net.org/events/joint- workshop/ciscato.pdf Next step is to bring online communities in NRENs –WP1 has a connections status summary list Needs inputs to be kept accurate

8. 6NET WP2 WP2 is transition Three mini-reports due now(!) –Site transition –NREN transition –Core transition –Reports will be useful for GEANT transition But need contributions… –Theory review, current experience, scenarios –Brief gathering this afternoon in break?

9. Euro6IX status Deploying IPv6 IX’s in Europe –Linking exchanges at 34Mbit/s –Deployment not due until M8 (August 2002) Will connect to 6NET at UK6X and Paris –UK physical link is in place Joint activity deliverable (D5.3 in Euro6IX) –Needs people to talk – draft is available –Deadline for deliverable is upon us –Implies some coordinated efforts e.g. on who ports which applications and tools

10. Other EU IPv6 projects IST FP5 –6NET, Euro6IX, 6WINIT, LONG, … –6LINK (coordinating IPv6 Cluster) www.ist-ipv6.org –IPv6 Task Force Steering Committee www.ipv6tf.org –New: 6POWER, 6QM, Eurov6 IST FP6 –Expressions of Interest submitted Other groups, e.g. RIPE IPv6 WG

11. GEANT Y3 work Focus is IPv6 deployment on GEANT –What do we need to test? How? When? –Identify architecture requirements from 6NET But note 6NET is designed to be IPv6-only GEANT will be dual-stack Perhaps study dual-stack deployment by SURFnet? –Aim must be to be IPv6-enabled by end of Y3? –Relationship between 6NET and IPv6 GEANT? GEANT offering 2.5Gbit/s to 6NET in 6NET Y2

12. Other ideas/suggestions… Promotion and usage of IPv6 applications –Some coming from 6NET, Euro6IX, LONG Promotion and usage of IPv6 multicast –Work by RENATER and within 6NET –Need content(!) Use of IPv6 in TERENA mobility WG –Ad-hoc wireless networking –Network admission/authentication –Mobile IPv6
