5. Setting the scene
5
โข The Internet has become a fundamental infrastructure,
worldwide, for economic and social activity, and its usage
continues to grow exponentially:
โ More users
โ New applications (e.g. mobile, Internet of Things etc.)
โข The transition from IPv4 to IPv6 is the only sustainable
option in the long run.
โข A smooth transition requires understanding the challenges
and a timely start.
The Internet is changingโฆ
6. IPv4 Vs IPv6
Internet Protocol
version 4 (IPv4)
Internet Protocol
version 6 (IPv6)
Deployed 1981 1999
Address Size 32-bit number 128-bit number
Address Format Dotted Decimal
Notation:
192.149.252.76
Hexadecimal Notation:
2001:DB8:0234:AB00:0
123:4567:8901:ABCD
Prefix Notation 192.149.0.0/24 2001:DB8:0234::/48
Number of Addresses 232 =
~4,000,000,000
2128 = ~340,000,000,

7. But how is deployment going?
โข This varies around the world in terms ofโฆ
โ Address deployment
โข Have the networks got addresses?
โ Routing deployment
โข Do they show in the routing table?
โ Traffic
โข Are the routes being used?
โ User capability and usefulness
โข Can end-users use IPv6 and access content?
โข And these are business decisions.

IPv4 IPv6
โข Around 30000 IPv6 routes compare to 600000 IPv4 routes
but IPv6 is steadily growing

11. ATRC IDA IPv6 Survey 2016
โข Aims to investigate the technical and regulatory readiness
of ASEAN Member States (AMS) in adopting IPv6 to
support the future growth and expansion of the Internet
โข Prepared and carried out by IDA Singapore in close
collaboration with APNIC
โข IDA Singapore and ASEC communicated to all ATRC focal
points
โข Survey was kept short, focused on essentials and available
in two formats - online and offline
โข As of 4 May 2016, we received responses from 8 AMS
โ BN, KH, LA, MY, MM, SG, TH, VN
โ Thanks for the contributions

48. Observations
โข IPv6 deployment is increasing steadily
โ But varies among regions, economies, and individual ASNs
โ Not happening simultaneously
โ Some economies and ASNs have been very active in terms of IPv6
deployment
โข Particularly mobile network, cloud services and cable TV operators
โข Regional smaller size operators shows higher level of IPv6 readiness
โข Once they enable IPv6 in their network and handsets, their end user
readiness grows VERY rapidly
โข It strongly impacts respective economyโs IPv6 readiness level

50. 6 key messages to take away
1. IPv6 is now inevitable as we continue to move toward a ubiquitously
connected society. E.g. Smart cities
2. Without IPv6 deployment, it is just a matter of time before networks
(countries) become isolated and unable to communicate.
3. Ability to integrate devices, such as mobile phones, IoT, etc., is no
longer a want โ it is a need.
4. Without IPv6, will severely limit the move towards a connected
society, hindering government and business efficiency.
5. Government personnel need integrated, secure functionality to help
provide citizen services.
6. IPv6 is no longer just a technical issue to be tackled only at the
operational level. It needs to involve all levels and agencies within the
government.
