IPv6 curricula study Franck Le Gall, Caroline Garence, Fabrice ClariIPv6 Conference
The document summarizes the key findings of a study on IPv6 curriculum and training in Europe. It found that while IPv6 deployment is growing, training offerings have not kept pace and need to expand significantly to support full adoption. Specifically:
- Less than 50% of networking training providers offer IPv6 courses despite growing deployment needs.
- Training availability and quality is inconsistent across Europe without standardized certification.
- Demand for IPv6 training is expected to sharply increase over the next 2-5 years as IPv4 addresses run out, but the supply of training may not meet this demand.
- Government support for IPv6 and training is limited, which could delay full deployment timelines in Europe.
Testimonial from an IPv6 ready logo certified trainer - Silvia Hagen (Sunny C...IPv6 Conference
This document discusses the need for IPv6 education and certification. It notes that demand for IPv6 training has increased significantly since 2008. Successful IPv6 implementation and education requires understanding implications beyond technical details, embracing new concepts, and getting rid of preconceptions from IPv4. Certification programs should have different levels, be standardized and accredited, and validate understanding of both IPv6 and the fundamentals of TCP/IP networking. Educators must convey these success factors passionately to motivate organizations and IT people for the next generation of networks.
The IPv4 address pool has been depleted, but IPv6 adoption is increasing in several areas like internet traffic, websites supporting it, and vendor product inquiries. While IPv6 policy drivers emerged a few years ago, now the market is responding and network equipment, operating systems, and backbone networks are increasingly IPv6 enabled. However, some customer premises equipment still lacks support. Internet users are now asking for IPv6, and internet service providers want to deploy it to reduce IPv4 costs. Major service providers are planning IPv6 rollouts and testing the technology. A common set of requirements could help complete IPv6 device support and make 2011 a significant year for its adoption.
The document summarizes Turkey's efforts to transition to IPv6, including establishing an IPv6 forum in 2007, running projects and workshops since 2008, and developing a three-phase transition plan for government agencies issued in December 2010. It discusses challenges such as lack of IPv6 support from ISPs and upstream providers, and actions taken like setting up an IPv6 traffic exchange point to help ISPs test IPv6 connectivity. The transition plan mandates government agencies to enable IPv6 on their networks and services by specific deadlines between 2011-2013.
Simon Hicks - BIS Perspective on the likely IPv4/IPv6 Migration, and the Way ...IPv6 Conference

A possible migration plan is outlined, starting at the network core and moving outward. 6UK is introduced as a non-profit established by BIS to raise awareness, provide information and tools, and promote IPv6 adoption among UK businesses before IPv4 addresses run out.
Petra Holubičková - Governmental Support of IPv6 Deployment in the Czech Repu...IPv6 Conference
The Czech government adopted a resolution in 2009 requiring government ministries and agencies to support IPv6 deployment. A 2010 survey found full compliance with the first requirement for regular network upgrades to include IPv6. The Ministry of Industry and Trade leads ongoing efforts to raise IPv6 awareness and monitor progress through the national Digital Czech Republic strategy and cooperation with the national internet registry CZ.NIC.
The document discusses IPv6 deployment strategies and policies. It notes that IPv6 will likely become the dominant Internet protocol, even without active support. It then examines what instruments the European Commission could use to actively support IPv6 deployment within governments and for citizens. Finally, it discusses Slovenia's national IPv6 initiative and transition plan, and makes suggestions for coordinated European efforts like a common IPv6 specification.
Constanze Bürger - IPv6 in the public administration of Germany IPv6 Conference
The document discusses Germany's adoption of IPv6 in the public administration. It outlines the consensus to apply for an IPv6 address space, challenges in modernizing heterogeneous networks, and needs for secure, stable "Next Generation Networks". Actions include an address concept, organization guidelines, and research projects. Experiences include discussions at forums on the role of governments. Implementations include dual-stack upgrades and IPv6 pilots across levels. Support materials and an IPv6 profile are proposed to guide the transition.
1) Sweden's government is working to promote adoption of IPv6 by government agencies and organizations to support access to e-services and transition to new technologies.
2) A government delegation is coordinating IPv6 implementation efforts and providing guidance and interim reports to the government.
3) Proposals include developing an IPv6 assessment guide for organizations and encouraging public authorities to complete assessments by July 2011.
Leslie Daigle - IPv6 Global Deployment – Momentum and MilestonesIPv6 Conference
The document discusses the growing momentum and milestones around global IPv6 deployment. It notes that the number of internet-connected devices is growing rapidly and will exceed IPv4 address space. IPv6 is needed for a globally-connected future internet. Many governments, service providers, and content providers are making commitments and progressing IPv6 networks and services. Organizations are encouraged to make IPv6 a high priority and communicate plans to help drive further deployment.
The document discusses the need for organizations to deploy IPv6 now as IPv4 addresses are running out. It notes that regional internet registries will start turning down IPv4 address requests in 2011. Statistics show the growth of IPv4 allocation over time and that it is projected to run out by 2012. Charts display the level of IPv6 deployment for internet registries and countries. Case studies of websites and internet companies that have successfully deployed IPv6 are provided. The conclusion is that the time for excuses is over and networks need to deploy production-grade IPv6 immediately to continue growing.
This document discusses the history and current state of IPv4 and IPv6 addressing. It notes that IPv4 addresses were initially allocated in 1985 for academic and research networks, but spread widely through the 1990s as internet service providers grew. By 2010, over 90% of IPv4 addresses had been allocated, with less than 3% remaining. IPv6 was standardized in 1998 to address the impending exhaustion of IPv4 addresses. IPv6 provides enough addresses that each person on Earth could have trillions, far more than needed. While IPv6 deployment is still in early stages, regions like Asia and Europe have allocated more addresses. One challenge remaining is greater adoption of IPv6 in domains name system infrastructure.
Per Blixt - IPv6 deployment, taking stock and next steps?IPv6 Conference
This document discusses IPv6 deployment in Europe. It notes that IPv6 deployment is progressing but not fast enough, and outlines actions taken by the European Commission to promote IPv6, including establishing task forces, funding research projects, and setting a target of 25% of European users to be IPv6 enabled by 2010. It also summarizes the results of an IPv6 deployment monitoring survey that found the US, Russia, Australia, Germany and the UK had the most respondents. The document calls for more cooperation between stakeholders to increase IPv6 piloting, experimentation, and deployment in member states.
Zaccone Carmelo - IPv6 and security from a user’s point of view IPv6 Conference
This document discusses the IPv6 deployment at AWT.be from a security perspective. It describes how AWT.be initially deployed IPv6 separately from IPv4 using dedicated firewalls and networks. They then transitioned to dual-stack deployment after gaining experience. Key lessons included ensuring firewall and application support for IPv6, careful address configuration to avoid errors, and awareness that dual-stack hosts are more vulnerable without personal firewalls that support IPv6. The deployment approach aimed to safely gain experience with IPv6 before integrating it fully into production networks and services.
Eric Vyncke - IPv6 Security Vendor Point of ViewIPv6 Conference
The document discusses security threats and mitigations related to IPv6. It notes that unlike IPv4, IPv6's Neighbor Discovery Protocol (NDP) is not authenticated by default, allowing attacks like ARP spoofing. Secure NDP (SEND) adds cryptography to authenticate messages, but it is not universally implemented. The document also examines challenges around IPv6 header manipulation, lack of network address translation, and ensuring compliance with standards like PCI DSS. Overall it emphasizes that network devices and appliances now support IPv6, so operators can control IPv6 traffic similarly to IPv4.
Wolfgang Fritsche (IABG) – Secure IPv6 deployment IPv6 Conference
The document discusses a European Commission project analyzing security aspects of IPv6 deployment. It examines existing and emerging private and business user scenarios, including e-government, mobile users, and general aspects. The project aims to identify vulnerabilities, research needs, and standardization issues to help secure IPv6 adoption. Key advantages of IPv6 include enabling end-to-end security and secure mobility support. Challenges include adapting network devices and policies for IPv6 and addressing security issues like Denial of Service attacks.
The document lists individuals and organizations that have been approved to provide training courses and certification for IPv6 services. It includes those approved at gold and silver levels to provide courses, as well as individuals approved at gold level to serve as trainers. A variety of international organizations and locations are represented among those approved.
The document summarizes the findings of a study on IPv6 training curricula in Europe. It found that while IPv6 skills are urgently needed for new Internet services and deployments, training offerings have been slow to expand. Most trainers only have basic IPv6 courses and fewer than half of networking courses include IPv6. Interviews suggest demand for IPv6 training will sharply increase in the next 2-5 years. The study recommends actions like raising awareness of IPv6 security risks, making more training resources available, gaining certification for courses, and monitoring progress, to better support the transition to IPv6 in Europe.
