The document outlines the collaboration between ITU and APNIC for the transition from IPv4 to IPv6, highlighting the importance of IPv6 for sustainable internet growth in the Asia-Pacific region. It discusses APNIC's role in training and capacity development for network operators, promoting IPv6 adoption through hands-on workshops and engineering assistance in developing economies. The document emphasizes the urgent need for IPv6 deployment to address the limitations of IPv4 and ensure comprehensive global internet connectivity.
ITU-APNIC collaboration on the transition from IPv4 to IPv6
- 1. ITU-APNIC collaboration on the transition from IPv4 to IPv6 ITU Regional Development Forum "ICTs for Smart Sustainable Asia-Pacific" Manila, Philippines 6-7 June 2016 <duncan@apnic.net>
- 2. Agenda • Introduction • ICT growth and economic development • Scalable growth of IP-based services and IPv6 • Collaboration between ITU and APNIC • IPv6 capacity development • Way forward – APNIC Development Program
- 3. APNIC • Primary function: Distribution and management of Internet number resources – IPv4 and IPv6 addresses – Autonomous System Numbers (ASNs) • Not-for-profit, membership organization – 5,000+ Members (10,000+ Members in total) • How we achieve APNIC’s vision: – Technical training and assistance – Support for community development (NOGs, CERTs etc.) – Supporting infrastructure development • IPv6, IXPs, root server deployment 3 “A global, open, stable, and secure Internet that serves the entire Asia Pacific community”
- 4. Securing scalable growth of IP-based services • The Internet is a global system of interconnected networks • The most prominent component of the Internet is the Internet Protocol (IP) – IP addresses are unique and essential numbers required to identify the source and destination of digital packets – Vast supply and management of IP addresses is the key in supporting future growth – IP version 6 (IPv6) needs to be widely deployed to secure future growth of the Internet 4
- 5. IPv6 capacity development • 20 plus years of APNIC training – Hundreds of IPv6 training courses delivered for APNIC members and the wider community • About 4000 people participate in APNIC trainings annually • Collaboration with the ITU – APNIC – ITU Asia Pacific (ASP) Centre of Excellence – Training network operators, policy makers and regulators from developing AP economies on IPv6 deployment – IPv6 migration strategies for telecom service providers (2011, 2012) – IPv6 infrastructure network security (2013, 2014, 2015, 2016) – ITU country direct engineering assistance in Lao PDR (2014), Mongolia (2015) and Cambodia (2016)
- 6. Collaboration with ITU • Our focus is on IPv6 capacity development in developing economies – Together we educate key network engineers and technical staff from various economies in the Asia Pacific • Supported by: – Ministry of Information and Communication Technology, Thailand – ToT Academy, Thailand • To deliver hands-on practical training courses and direct engineering assistance to support smooth IPv6 adoption in developing economies 6
- 7. Collaboration with ITU • Held in Bangkok, Thailand in May • 5 days; hands-on workshop • 42 participants from 10 economies in the Asia Pacific • Topics – IPv6 protocol, IPv6 addressing, configuration of IPv4 and IPv6 networks, Hardening IPv6 network devices, IPv6 transition technologies, Securing transition technologies, lots of hands-on labs 7 IPv6 infrastructure network security workshop
- 8. Collaboration with ITU • On IPv6 • Held in Ulaanbaatar, Mongolia in July 2015 • 3 days; hands-on workshop (48 participants) + EA at 3 organizations • Individual EA on how to deploy IPv6 in each networks 8 Next collaboration: Cambodia June 20- 23 2016 ITU Country Direct Engineering Assistance (EA)

- 12. Why are we waiting…? Some frequent answers… • We have more IPv4 addresses than we need • We have more IPv4 addresses than people! • Our content is offshore, in the cloud, etc. • IPv4 works well enough Ok, but things are changing….
- 13. Drivers: network access – New deployments must use NAT (eg mobile) – Carrier Grade NAT is expensive – Increasing costs: x users x bandwidth – Addresses for every device – Offload traffic from NATs – Competitive advantage – IPv4 is eventually irrelevant, no more NAT – LTE can use IPv6 immediately – Also: “Internet of Things” Without IPv6 (IPv4 only) With IPv6 (dual stack)
- 14. Drivers: content and services – Degrading customer/client experience – Mobile users at particular disadvantage (all NAT) – Direct connection to all customers – Best performance for all – Better user experience, competitive advantage (esp mobile) Without IPv6 (IPv4 only) With IPv6 (dual stack)
