Preparing for Future Communications
04/19/23
The Internet Architecture is based on the Internet Protocol (IP). This protocol connects different network elements like router, servers, hosts, computers, Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) devices, mobile phones, sensors etc. This protocol specifies that each device should have a unique address to communicate globally with other devices on the Network. This address is known as the “IP Address”.
Internet Protocol & IP Address
04/19/23 4
ROLE OF IP ADDRESS ?
WHO ? Identification of Parties to the Communication Transaction
WHERE ? Determine the network location of the Identified Party
HOW ? Used to support Routing Decisions
IP Address The Internet Protocol (IP) specifies that each device (router, servers, hosts, computers, Radio Frequency Identification devices (RFID) , mobile phones, sensors etc. )on a network should have a unique address to communicate globally with other devices on the Network.

• Total Addresses = 2^32 = 4 billion• Some addresses are reserved for special purposes like private networks or multicast addresses. However practicall only 250 million addresses are usable.
Total Addresses = 2^128 = 340 billion, billion, billion, billion

IPv4 Consumption: Projection
11
Expected IANA Pool Depletion - October 2011Expected RIR Pool Depletion - August 2012
Current Availability = 16 blocks (of /8 addresses) = 268 million for whole worldConsumption ~ 2 blocks / month
Only 18.5 million IPv4 addresses for a population of 1.2 billion in India.
• But the requirement for IP addresses will keep increasing with new services, new networks, new applications.
• Telecommunications will be largest consumer of IP addresses in coming years (Broadband, 3G, NGN, 4G, LTE etc.)
• IPv4 is a diminishing resource and is very costly compared to IPv6 right now and will be more costlier with passage of time
IPv6 is the only solution !12
12
Solution ?
How IPv6 will help ?• Large Address Space – 128-bit addressing scheme,
practically unlimited addresses to connect every possible device
• End to End Communication – Useful from Security angle since every device on the network can be traced, not possible in IPv4 due to NAT (Network Address Translation)
• Improved Security using IPSec – Mandatory implementation in IPv6 ensures that all transmission is secured
• Support for 4G, NGN – IP is mandatory in 4G technologies like LTE and NGN implementations, so IPv6 is only option
• IP Mobility – Cellular telephony like features in IP networks is possible – new “Greenfield Applications” possible
Initiatives by Government
Various issues on IPv6 were deliberated at different levels in DoT, DIT,TRAI and
other Stakeholders during previous years based on which Telecom Commission in
2009 entrusted TEC for IPv6 related activities in addition to others
04/19/23
• Training Programme with APNIC, Australia (25-26th Nov 2009, Mumbai)• MoU with the IPV6 Forum for IPv6 Activities in India• International Summit with IPv6 Forum (15-16th Dec 2009, New Delhi)• Appointment of Nodal Officers in Central & State Govt. Departments for
IPv6 Deployment

These workshops were well attended by more than 1000 participants involving all telecom service providers, manufacturers, industry associations, industries, govt.
departments, educational institutions (IITs, IISc etc.)
• Workshops conducted by TEC
Some Important Extracts from Workshops• Suitable policy framework by Govt. for smooth
Transition.• Specific deadlines for Transition• Creation of IPv6 Task Force and working Groups• More Training and awareness activities • Guidance to SME service providers and organizations
on implementing IPv6• Govt. departments should take IP-based services from
only IPv6 ready ISPs after a certain period of time • Promoting Pilot projects in “Greenfield Applications”

Logistics and Supply Chain Intelligent Transport System Rural Emergency Healthcare System Tele-medicine Tele-education Smartgrids Smart Buildings(Many more such applications are available)
Different Ministries, Government Departments and Organizations in Private Sector can come forward to Work on these and similar Pilot Projects.

Based on various IPv6 activities and discussions with stakeholders a need for a suitable policy was felt for timely implementation of IPv6 in
the country. Accordingly TEC has prepared the “National IPv6 Deployment Roadmap”, which has been approved by the
Government and has been released by Hon’ble MOC&IT in July 2010.
Actionable Points of “National IPv6 Deployment Roadmap”
1. All major Service providers (having at least 10,000 internet customers or STM-1 bandwidth) will target to handle IPv6 traffic and offer IPv6 services by December-2011.
2. All central and State government ministries and departments, including its PSUs, shall start using IPv6 services by March-2012.
3. Formation of the IPv6 Task Force with the proposed structure.
IPv6 Task Force
