This document summarizes Vietnam's national IPv6 action plan and measurement of IPv6 deployment. It discusses Vietnam's three phase plan from 2011-2019 to promote IPv6 adoption. Key activities included IPv6 testing, training, transitioning networks to support both IPv4 and IPv6, and establishing a national IPv6 infrastructure. Measurement data is presented showing Vietnam ranks 6th in Asia for IPv6 deployment. Major ISPs like VNPT and Viettel are working to provide more IPv6 services to customers. While progress is being made, more work is needed to increase adoption rates and reduce gaps between different organizations. The government aims to further promote IPv6 among agencies, enterprises, and within legal/policy documents.

IPv6 promotion policies on Legal document

19. IPv6 promotion policies on Legal document
• Policies: Promoting IPv6 in developing and
deploying Laws, Programs and projects of
telecommunications, Internet and IT.
• Decree No. 72/2013/ND-CP of July 15, 2013,
on the management, provision and use of
Internet services and online information
(Article 18 – IPv6 Promotion) (Signed by
Prime Minister).
• Some other Circulars (Signed by Minister of
Information and Telecommunications).

20. 1. Better result of IPv6 deployment (~ 10% IPv6 Preferred), but this is still lower
than the average ratio of IPv6 over the world.
2. Highly differences on results of IPv6 deployment between ISPs, not much
IPv6 deployment in Content providers….
3. IPv6 deployment of Government agencies has been slow.
Issues

21. GOV ENTERPRISES
• Issuing the document for guiding IPv6
deployment in Government agencies.
• Continuing to have more IPv6 training
courses for Government agencies,
Department of Information and
Communications …
• Promoting and requesting them research
and deploy IPv6 within public services, e-
Government and Web Portal (.gov.vn).
• Promoting IPv6 in developing and
deploying Laws, Programs and projects of
telecommunications, Internet and IT …
• Working with some enterprises in
next month:
• Mobile operator: 4G LTE
• ISP, IDC
• Content providers
• Registrar ‘.VN’.
• Improving IPv6 with security and IoT
Focus
