ARIN XXIII Meeting Report [Archived]

How To Run IPv6 When All You Have Is IPv4

Using IPv6 with NAT-PT

ARIN Operations staff will demonstrate how to set up an IPv6 network with NAT-PT within your lab. We will offer multiple solutions to accomplish this goal. During this session you will have the opportunity to emit v6 packets that go to both the v6 and v4 Internet seamlessly from your laptop. ARIN will provide step by step setup instructions for home or office use.

Using IPv6 with a Tunnel Broker

ARIN Operations staff will demonstrate how to set up an IPv6 network if your upstream cannot support IPv6. ARIN will provide step by step setup instructions for creating your own IPv6 network with no IPv6 access required by your ISP. ARIN will show multiple methods to achieve this goal.

A Dive into IPv6 Implementation for ISP’s - Is it that deep?

Aaron Hughes, Facility Security Officer (FSO) for Cariden Technologies and contractor to Lockheed Martin, UnitedLayer and others, and prior VP of Technology for Terremark, will show the process he undertook to IPv6-enable networks under his control. He will explain all the steps to take you from requesting your initial allocation; enabling v6; developing a v6 customer base; and growing your connectivity to other v6-enabled ISPs.

Dual-prong Approach: IPv6 and Dual-stack Lite

The Internet currently is mostly using IPv4. However, the complete allocation of the IPv4 address pool is looming within the next 20 to 30 months. IPv6 was designed over a decade ago to enable the Internet to scale beyond this limitation, but IPv6 is still largely undeployed in the public Internet.

This presentation and associated demo will focus on a solution, Dual-stack lite, that leverages the deployment of IPv6 to provide an IPv4 service that will not require a unique IPv4 address per broadband customer.

The lack of backward compatibility between IPv4 and IPv6 makes it difficult to deploy IPv6 incrementally in the Internet.
