IPv6 deployment update: Where are we now? ISOC ION in Sri Lanka 18 Jan 2015 By Vivek Nigam
Agenda
• IPv6 deployment status in the APNIC region • Growth path of the Internet: IPv6 and mobile
networks • APNIC’s engagement with IPv6 deployment • Conclusion
2
How IPv6 deployment is going?
This varies around the world in terms of… – Address deployment
• Have the networks got addresses? – Routing deployment
• Do they show in the routing table? – Content readiness on IPv6 – User capability
• Can end-users use IPv6 and access content?

Observation • IPv6 deployment is increasing steadily
– But varies among regions, economies, and individual ASNs – Not happening simultaneously – Some economies and ASNs have been very active in terms of IPv6
deployment • Particularly some mobile network operators and cable TV operators • Once they enable IPv6 in their network and handsets, their end user
readiness grows VERY rapidly
• Where are you now in terms of IPv6 deployment?

Two Mobile Revolutions… • 1990s: mobile voice explosion
– Few wires available (copper) – New wireless technology (analogue mobile) – New consumer technology (cellphones) – Pent up demand (global telephony)
• 2010s: mobile broadband explosion – Few wires available (copper/fibre) – New wireless technology (3G/4G) – New consumer technology (smart phones) – Pent up demand (global Internet)
33
IPv6 in mobile networks
• 3G+ and 4G (LTE, TD-LTE): Services on voice, messaging and data are converging on IP-based services
• Rapidly increasing global 3G+ and 4G deployment – Some mobile network operators already deployed IPv6
34
Verizon T-Mobile
Case Study: T-Mobile USA • Late 2009
– T-Mobile USA re-examined their future IP addressing strategy • Growth in “always-on” smart devices • Emergence of 4G LTE • IPv4 does not fit the business need • IPv6 deployment in mobile networks is ready
– 9 months: Feasibility study and impact assessment on IPv6 deployment
• In 2010: Started IPv6 friendly user trial • Oct 2013
– Deployed IPv6-Only hand devices + an IPv6 transition technology (464XLAT) to make everything work with IPv6-Only
• Introduction feature to handsets is a slow and careful process

Conclusion: IPv6 in mobile networks • The business competency of mobile network operators:
– Shifting from being a traditional voice and messaging provider to mobile broadband service provider to ISP
– Services on voice, messaging and data are converging on IP based services
– Rapidly increasing LTE deployment in the region
• Decision makers’ (mobile network operators) view – Ready to move to Voice over LTE? – Mobile cloud computing on top of the LTE network? – What are key building blocks for all-IP strategy?
• IP everywhere – here and now – IPv4 or IPv6? The choice is yours
