World IPv6 Launch: Access Networks

Who? §  ATT, Comcast, Free, Internode, KDDI, Time Warner Cable, and

XS4ALL initially §  69 networks achieved a measurable deployment with an

average of at least 0.1% by 6 June 2012 §  This number had increased to 197 networks by 11 October

2013 IPv6 is part of Regular Business now §  New subscribers getting IPv6 on by default, no user config

needed §  This was measured by Google, Facebook, and Yahoo! on 6

June, 2012 and has been measured and reported each month since then. These results are here: –  http://www.worldipv6launch.org/measurements

§  NB: the 5 most visited websites in the world use IPv6 now 7

IPv6 Deployment – up and to the right

-  The % of traffic using IPv6 is growing consistently, and, of late, fairly rapidly. It doubled in the last year, and is at a pace to double quicker than that now.

-  It seems clear from all signs of deployment that IPv6 has caught on and the “waiting for other operators before starting deployment” phase is over

-  Deployment of IPv6 gets network operators on a path to avoid or retire large scale NATs

-  Some operators are beginning to consider IPv6 only deployments in parts of their network

This is Great! But, what does Success look like? How much IPv6 traffic is "enough"?

Enterprise networks do not generate lots of traffic, but are heavily dependent on the Internet for outsourced services. Can we have a v6 Internet without enterprise deployments? What's stopping them?

Apart from backbone IPv6 traffic, what are the key milestones for IPv6 progress? E.g., the relationship between IPv6 deployment and (reduced) reliance on Large Scale NATs
