6. Conclusion
6
• The ratio of the two common measurement criteria,
IPv6 allocation and BGP advertisement, and IPv6 user
availability, are growth, those are 6.5% and 34.6%,
respectively, this year.
• The growth rate in the IPv6 user availability shows that
most Asia Pacific countries made big progress in the
IPv6 deployment.
• The growth rate of the IPv6 service availability is
negative for many countries.
• The content providers need be encouraged to apply
IPv6 services .
