1.Wireless Communication System_Wireless communication is a broad term that i...JeyaPerumal1
Wireless communication involves the transmission of information over a distance without the help of wires, cables or any other forms of electrical conductors.
Wireless communication is a broad term that incorporates all procedures and forms of connecting and communicating between two or more devices using a wireless signal through wireless communication technologies and devices.
Features of Wireless Communication
The evolution of wireless technology has brought many advancements with its effective features.
The transmitted distance can be anywhere between a few meters (for example, a television's remote control) and thousands of kilometers (for example, radio communication).
Wireless communication can be used for cellular telephony, wireless access to the internet, wireless home networking, and so on.
Peering and Transit Tutorials: Path to IPv4 Exhaustion
1. Path to IPv4 Exhaustion
are we Are we Ready to face it?A
Presenter: Madhvi Gokool,
Registration Service Manager
AFRINIC Ltd re we ready to face it
PAre we ready to face it?
2. • In brief, this presentation will briefly go through
the topics of AFRINIC as RIR, its membership
trends, status of the IPv4 pool , current soft
landing policy ratified, how fast can the last /8 run
out and the dire reality of the state of IPv6 on the
AFRICAN continent. We shall also cover the
implications of not deploying IPv6 and to
highlight some policies that have been proposed
and currently being discussed at AFRINIC
3. Introduction
• AFRINIC is the Regional Internet Registry
(AFRICAN continent as service region)
• Manages IP Number Resource Pools(IPv4, IPv6
& ASNs
• Membership based organisation
4. Membership
• Organisations that operate an IP network from
various industries - Internet Service Providers,
Mobile operators, Hosting/Cloud providers,
Research and Education Networks , Banking ,
Government , Critical infrastructure providers etc
ANY ENTITY in service region that originates services
8. Status of IPv4
Resources
• Amount of IPv4 addresses in the Inventory
• @June 2016 - 1.6 /8 . 10 Million IPv4 away from last /8
• Amount of IPv4 addresses under evaluation
~/10 +/11 (6 Million IPv4)
• Amount of IPv4 addresses issued (2015 & 2016)
• ~ 1 /8(16 Million)
9. Inventory
Prefix
size
/8 /10 /11 /12 /13 /15 /16 /17 /18 /19 /20 /21 /22 /24
Total 1 1 1 1 1 3 17 4 1 2 3 3 32 232
• As we near exhaustion, aggregation is not being guaran
• Cleanliness (not blacklisted) of IPs not guaranteed
10. When shall we hit the last
/8(softlanding)?
• As from 1 July 2016. Resource issuance will only
happen after member has paid
allocation/assignment fee.
• Impact on resource uptake still being determined.
• Late 2016 if allocation rates are similar to 2015
or 2017
11. IPv4 Exhaustion
• When AFRINIC has reached the last /8
• Soft landing policy
• Allocation/Assignment Rules change
12. Softlanding or Last /8
• A policy AFPUB-2010-v4-005 that has been ratified by
AFRINIC BoD in Nov 2011
• Kicks in when
an otherwise-valid request for IPv4 address space from any LIR
or end user to AfriNIC either
(a) cannot be fulfilled with the IPv4 address space available
in the AFRINIC pool (with the exception of the Final /8), OR
(b) can be fulfilled, but would leave the AFRINIC IPv4
address pool empty (with the exception of the Final /8).
13. Softlanding or Last /8
• EXHAUSTION PHASE 1
• A /12 IPv4 address block will be in reserved out of the Final /8. This /12 IPv4 address
block shall be preserved by AfriNIC for some future uses, as yet unforeseen.
• Allocations/Assignments (LIR/EU members) will get IP addresses as per current phase
with minimum set to /22 and /24 for LIR & End-user Resource Members respectively
• Maximum Allocation/Assignment shall be a /13 prefix
• No explicit limit on the number of times an organisation may request additional
IPv4 space
• Allocation/Assignment period changes from 12 months to 8 months
• Existing Resource Members eligible to get additional blocks if 90% usage of all
Resources it has (Current & Exhaustion Phase)
14. Softlanding or Last /8
• EXHAUSTION PHASE 2
• AFRINIC has a /11 on non-RESERVED space available in the Final /8
• Minimum/Maximum Allocation&Assignment shall be a /24 and
/22
• No explicit limit on the number of times an organisation may
request additional IPv4 space
• Allocation/Assignment period changes from 12 months to 8
months
• Existing Resource Members eligible to get additional blocks if
90% usage of all Resources it has (Current & Exhaustion Phase)
15. How fast can AFRINIC move
from Phase 1 to Phase 2?
• 13,631,488 IPv4 Addresses
• Average rate of consumption /per month in 2016 =
1,398,100
• No. of months = ~10 months
• It could be less - /13 limit per prefix size x no
explicit limit of number of times
Can we agree that Phases 1 & 2 can be short?
16. Impact of exhaustion on operators

17. What you already
know?
• Carrier Grad NAT (CGN)
• Large Scale NAT (LSN)
• NAT 444
NAT is NOT a Sustainable Solution to
Address Depletion
IPv6 and IPv4 are not compatible
20. Networks would grow
Deployment of network infrastructure Interconnection,
infrastructure & rural areas
Cyber security

Content and ccTLDs growth
Research and Innovation
Internet governance and critical Internet resources
Internet of Things (IoT)
Shall happen only with IPv6
What shall happen during/after IPv4
Exhaustion
Nationally:
Governments and Regulators
21. Telecoms, Service Providers, organisations doing business on the
Internet, need to be able to:
• Scale their networks; more clients
• Support a large mobile workforce
• Support large multiple sites
• Ensure that their content and information will be reached by more
viewers
IPv4 Exhaustion - What happens next??
PRIVATE SECTOR
22. Accurate IPv6 record-keeping does more than help law enforcement.
• Useful for
1. combating abuse.
2. anti-spam measures.
3. figuring out what's going on with distributed denial of service attacks.
Cyber Security & LEAs
IPv4 Exhaustion - What happens next??
23. Specialized Internet service provider dedicated to supporting
the needs of the research and education communities within
a country.
With thousands of online students and researchers, NRENs
are the ideal places to start implementing and testing new
Internet protocols (IPv6) and architectures (Cloud
Computing).
National Research & Education Networks (NRENs)
24. IPv6 in AFRICA
• IPv6 Allocations Trend
• 46% of Internet Exchange Points have an IPv6 prefix for peering or management
purposes
• 28% New-members requesting for their IPv6 prefix along with IPv4 in 2016
• 50% of NRENs have an IPv6 prefix
• 72% of Large——> Extra Large AFRINIC Resource members have an IPv6 prefix
25. IPv6 in AFRICA
36% of total resource members
have an IPv6 prefix
• 32 IPv6 prefixes
issued to members
in Tanzania(~50%)
IPv6 visible in routing tables
26. IPv6 trainings in AFRICA
23% of economies
in service region not
covered yet
Present more than
one in certain economies
27. IPv6 trainings in AFRICA
• Over 3000 engineers trained
• since 2010 until June 2016
28. IPv6 Adoption
Very slow adoption of IPv6 despite incentives(discounts)
provided by AFRINIC
• Free IPv6 prefix(no allocation/assignment fees)
• Free Training (technical & decision makers)
• Webinars in regard to sensitisation and deployment of
IPv6 networks
• Campaign of information in regard to what operators
should do prior to deploying an IPv6 network
29. In Practice
• COST OF MAINTAINING AN IPV4 NETWORK
WILL INCREASE
• COST OF DOING CGN WILL INCREASE
• Reliance on transition techniques
• Customer dissatisfaction
• Loss in market share
