1. The Future of the Internet Delivering on the Promise of IPv6
2. What’s New?Introducing Cisco Carrier-Grade IPv6 (CGv6) Solution A carrier-grade IPv6 transition solution that maximizes coverage and impact, minimizes cost and disruption Linksys New Carrier-Scale Capabilities Cost / Devices / Difficulty Home ISR Tens of Terabits of CGv6 Performance Nexus Access ASR Data Center CRS-1 Edge Core Coverage / Speed Translations x 1000 x 100,000 x 10 Million x 1 Billion Home Scale Enterprise Scale Carrier Scale
3. The Growing Internet Challenge The gap between supply and demand for IP addresses – the key Internet resource – is widening IPv4 Address Blocks Remaning1 Internet-Enabled Devices2 25 15B < 700 Days Remaining 5B 0 Today Sep 2011 Today 2015+ The pool of IPv4 address blocks is dwindling rapidly While the number of new Internet devices is exploding 1 – Geoff Huston, APNIC, www.potaroo.net, tracking /8 address-blocks managed by the Internet Assigned Numbers Authority 2 – Cisco Visual Networking Index / Intel Embedded Internet Projections
4. The Promise of IPv6 – Unconstrained Growth The dual-stack transition path is precluded by IPv4 exhaustion IPv6 Addresses Abundant - 340 Undecillion (1036) devices 56 billion billion billion addresses per person on Earth Enables global, inbound device accessibility Private IP IPv4 Improves security andapplication efficiency Addresses rationed – only 4.29 billion devices Private IP is one answer – if you can deploy carrier-scale address translation
5. Enabling an Orderly, Incremental Transition Boundless service opportunities with Smart Grid, Connected Cities, Mobile Video, Cloud Computing Prosper – from accelerated growth and innovation Prepare – to deliver interoperable IPv6 services Preserve – IPv4 investments and assets All IPv6 Today Private IP 6-over-4 Transitional 4-over-6 Business / Consumer IP NGN Smart Grid Opportunity: 110 million households in US alone = IPv4 = Private IP = IPv6

9. A Global Imperative Dr. Shin Miyakawa, Director: “…with IPv4 address space quickly running out, the industry needs a smooth and methodical transition to IPv6…” Japan Xavier Niel, Chief Strategy Officer: “…we are pleased with Cisco’s well-thought out strategy and solution portfolio for customers to transition to IPv6…” France Xing Li, Deputy Director: “…IPv4 address exhaustion will cause huge problem for China Internet's growth, so we must make IPv6 transition happen smoothly…” China
