•  Early collaboration BIPT, IPv6 Council, FPS Economy www.bipt.be on IPv6 since May 2011

www.beltug.be on IPv6 since June 2013

Workshop organized May 2012 with ICC, BELTUG, Agoria

•  Framework around IPv4 address sharing (CGN = Carrier Grade NAT) CGN has impact on security and user experience

Consensus in Belgium around 16:1 sharing ratio

AFAIK based on FCCU / BIPT / ISPA

This is now an example in the Internet community

•  IETF & RIPE say every subscriber should be provisioned for 65.536 networks

Let’s design for 20 years J

Also known as a /48 prefix

Not the case for some Belgian ISP

•  IPv6 prefix should be stable and not changing daily

Technical reason for intra-home renumbering & naming

Not the case for some Belgian ISP

•  Default security posture is to block all inbound traffic

This prevents real peer-to-peer applications: voice, video, gaming

See Microsoft X/Box

Swisscom & Free do no block

Usually can be reverted through the GUI

•  No mobile providers have IPv6... T-Mobile US 4G is IPv6-only

40% of Verizon Mobile US are IPv6

Nothing in Belgium

•  Use of CGN is not clearly announced when used

•  Nearly not big web hosting providers (Skynet & Telenet)

•  Nearly no content (web servers) is available over IPv6 (see next slide) 1st IPv6 web is www.rtbf.be at the 17th position

2nd IPv6 web is www.gva.be at the 33rd position

•  Belgian fixed-line ISPs have done a GREAT job Technical issues though: prefix size, changing prefix

•  Belgium is late Mobile providers: no plan AFAIK (hoping that you contradict me J)

Content: nearly no major web sites
