  • Performance Analysis and Comparison of 6To4 Relay Implementations

The coexistence of the two Regional Internet Registries in 2011 [3]. Therefore an versions of IP requires some transition mechanisms. One of them important upcoming coexistence issue is the problem of an is 6to4 which provides a solution for the problem of an IPv6 IPv6 only client and an IPv4 only server, because internet capable device in an IPv4 only environment. From among the service providers (ISPs) can still supply the relatively small several 6to4 relay implementations, the following ones were number of new servers with IPv4 addresses from their own selected for testing: sit under Linux, stf under FreeBSD and stf pool but the huge number of new clients can get IPv6 addresses under NetBSD. Their stability and performance were investigat- only. DNS64 [4] and NAT64 [5] are the best available ed in a test network. The increasing measure of the load of the techniques that make it possible for an IPv6 only client to 6to4 relay implementations was set by incrementing the number communicate with an IPv4 only server. Another very important of the client computers that provided the traffic. The packet loss and the response time of the 6to4 relay as well as the CPU coexistence issue comes from the case when the ISP does not utilization and the memory consumption of the computer support IPv6 but the clients do and they would like to running the tested 6to4 relay implementations were measured.

  • Deploy CGN to Retain Ipv4 Addressing While Transitioning to Ipv6
    White Paper Deploy CGN to Retain IPv4 Addressing While Transitioning to IPv6 The IANA ran out of IPv4 addresses to allocate in February 2011, and the Regional Internet Registries (RIR) will have assigned most of their addresses by the end of 2011. The world is faced with the fundamental problem of IPv4 address space exhaustion. There is a huge demand for IP addresses resulting from the explosive growth of mobile devices, including smartphones, portable gaming consoles, tablets, laptops and netbooks, and machine-to- machine modules. Figure 1 shows the expected growth in mobile phones alone. The number of mobile subscribers is expected to be 4.5 billion by 2014. Figure 1. Expected Mobile Phone Growth (in Millions) (Source: IDC) Preserve IPv4 Addressing with CGN Service providers are looking for ways to extend the use of the IPv4 addresses they have during their transition to IPv6. IPv4 addresses are still valid and ubiquitous, and not everyone is using IPv6 yet, so the two addressing schemes will coexist for a long time. Although new IPv4 addresses are not available, there is a short-term alternative that ensures your business continuity. That alternative is Carrier Grade NAT (CGN), a solution that service providers can employ today to extend their use of IPv4 addresses. The extension is achieved in two ways: IPv4 addresses are extended because they are translated from many private addresses to one public address. The extension is also a time extension–-service providers can continue using IPv4-only networks for a while. Cisco’s approach to help customers as they transition to IPv6 is to “Preserve, Prepare and Prosper.” CGN helps customers “Preserve” the present mode of operation.

This document also discusses issues to be considered when having IPv6-only connectivity, such as: a) DNS64, b) applications or devices that use literal IPv4 addresses or non-IPv6-compliant APIs, and c) IPv4- only hosts or applications.
