4. ISOC State of IPv6 Readiness presented by
Kevin Meynell (ISOC)
• Updated the status of ISOC’s IPv6 deployment
including infrastructure, IPv6 external services,
IPv6 internal services, and IPv6 policy.
• ISOC supports the Go6lab to test IPv6
implementations + DNSSEC & DANE and hosts
NAT64 solutions for public testing.

5. Current Japan Status presented by
Tomohiro Fujisaki (NTT)
• Many fixed-line ISPs have started the IPv6
service for both enterprise and consumer users.
• A few cellular carriers provide IPv6 connectivity.
• IPv6 ready Government’s services are increasing.
• Large contents providers do not support IPv6 yet.
• In Japan, IPv6 Internet connectivity has
deployed smoothly, but need to tackle to
improve Content services and Cellular services.

6. Current Vietnam Status presented by
Thang Nguyen Hong (VNNIC)
• Introduced the National IPv6 Master Plan.
• In Starting Phase(2013 – 2015), some ISPs started to
provide IPv6 services for a small group of users. For
example,
– One ISP provided pilot IPv6 service for 90K of xDSL
users
– 3 Telco have done the testing for LTE mobile services
– 3 CPE Vendors supported for fixed network
• From 2016, migrating all networks
– Do the survey from all members
– Checkpoints in some ISP networks

7. Current Taiwan Status presented by
Ching Heng Ku(TWNIC)
• Updated the status of 3 common
measurement criteria: IPv6 allocation and BGP
advertisement , User Availability, Service
Availability.
• Updated the other measurement criteria:
Core Network-IPv6 traffic , Vendors-IPv6
Ready Logo Phase I & Phase II
• Organize the ISP IPv6 Advisory Group in
TWNIC board to promote the IPv6 access
service in ISPs.

9. IPv6 readiness
measurements for NZ presented by
Sebastian Castro (NZRS)
• Passive and active measurements of IPv6
metrics by NZRS including
– IPv6 .nz DNS queries from the traffic for 4 out of 7
nameservers
– Counting per query type
• Showed the IPv6 Status in NZ from the data
collected by third parties including Google,
Akamai, RIPE NCC and APNIC.

• In addition to measurement results from the
public existing data sources, the results from
ccTLD DBs are also presented.
• More than 30 organizations have given
presentation in previous meetings. We will
invite more ccTLD registries to participate in
the future BoF meetings.
• Different methodologies and criteria of
readiness measurement are very welcome.
