IPv6 Gets Real







IPv6 Gets Real

IPv6 Gets Real 07/21/2004 10:47 AM

Looks like IPv6 is going from being that funny option in the network stack that nobody uses to being a real live protocol. Reuters has the story.

Vinton Cerf of the Internet Corp. for Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN) said the next-generation protocol, IPv6, had been added to its root server systems, making it possible for every person or device to have an Internet protocol address.
[...]
"This is a big, big step," Cerf said, speaking on sidelines of ICANN's annual conference held in the Malaysian capital.
[...]
Cerf said about two-thirds of the 4.3 billion Internet addresses currently available were used up, adding that IPv6 could magnify capacity by some "25,000 trillion trillion times".

From reading ICANN's pre ss release, it looks like they're starting with the .kr (Korea) and .jp (Japan) TLD's. I imagine it will be a while before they get confident enough to roll it out for .com, .net, and .org.

Enabling IPv6 on OS X. Very neat. Very easy. Dancing turtles everywhere. Use en1 instead of en0 to use the AirPort interface instead of ethernet. Of course, as Aaron points out, the IPv6 transition is a big mess, so who really cares? I've been vaguely contemplating to make my private network run IPv6 instead of on 10.x addresses, but the only advantage is the neat factor (and that would grow old fast I'm sure) and there are many disadvantages.

AODV-UU (Ad-hoc On-demand Distance Vector Routing, from Uppsala University) is a routing protocol under investigation by the IETF for use in ad-hoc networks, where both end-users and routers are mobile. This implementation supports IPv6 and multicasting (with the appropriate patch) and is compliant with RFC 3561.

Understanding Mobile IPv6


Understanding Mobile IPv6 04/10/2004 12:43 PM
Mobile Internet Protocol version 6 (IPv6) allows an IPv6 node to be mobile—to arbitrarily change its location on the IPv6 Internet—and still maintain existing connections. Connection maintenance for mobile nodes is not done by modifying connection-oriented protocols such as TCP, but by handling the change of addresses at the Internet layer using Mobile IPv6 messages and options and processes that ensure the correct delivery of data regardless of the mobile node's location.
