  1. IPv4 DepletionIPv6 Adoption May 8, 2009

  2. About IPv4 and IPv6

  3. Available IPv4 /8s from IANA* *as of March 2009

  4. RIRs are consistently allocating over 12 /8s each year worldwide There are 34 /8s remaining at the IANA as of 31 December 2008 Demand for IPv4 from the RIRs is not decreasing What We Know

  5. /8s Allocated by IANA to RIRs

  6. Remaining IPv4 /8s from IANA

  7. IPv4 demand continues to increase IPv4 free pool depletes IPv4 NAT use increases IPv6 deployment What Will Happen(in no particular order)

  8. We’re running out of IPv4 address space IPv6 must be adopted for continued Internet growth IPv6 is not backwards compatible with IPv4 We must maintain IPv4 and IPv6 simultaneously for many years The Bottom Line

  9. RIRs have been allocatingIPv6 address space since 1999 Thousands of organizations haveobtained an IPv6 allocation to date ARIN has IPv6 distribution policies for bothservice providers and end-user organizations

  10. Situation Today, the Internet is predominantly based on IPv4 The Internet must run two IP versions at the same time (IPv4 & IPv6) - this is the “dual-stack” approach

  11. Situation Today, there are organizations attempting to reach your mail and web servers via IPv6. In the near future there will be many more deployments using IPv6.

  12. Situation What requires contiguous number resources? • Building out major new networks • ISPs adding new customers What does this mean for: • Enterprise Customers? • Internet Service Providers? • Equipment Vendors? • Content and Hosting Firms?

  13. Call to Action Enterprise Customers Mail and web servers need to be reachable via IPv6 in addition to IPv4 in the future Open a dialogue with your Internet Service Provider about future IPv6 services Each organization’s decision regarding timeline & investment level will vary

  14. Call to ActionInternet Service Providers Begin planning to connect customers via both IPv4 and IPv6 now Communicate with your peers and vendors about IPv6 IPv6 considerations when making purchases

  15. Call to ActionEquipment Vendors Probably limited demand for IPv6 in the past Demand for IPv6 support will become mandatory very, very quickly Introduce IPv6 support into your product cycle as soon as possible

  16. Call to ActionContent Providers Content clients must be reachable to newer Internet customers Begin planning to connect hosting customers via both IPv4 and IPv6 now Encourage customers to use IPv6 and test their applications over it as soon as possible

  17. Government Actions Awareness Coordinate with industry Adopt incentives • Regulatory • Economic Support and promote activities Officially adopt IPv6

  18. IPv6 Adoption Needs IPv6 address space IPv6 connectivity (native or tunneled) Operating systems, software, and network management tool upgrades Router, firewall, and other hardware upgrades IT staff and customer service training

  19. ARIN IPv6 Wiki Facilitate discussion and information sharing on IPv6 Includes real-world experience about adopting IPv6 www.getipv6.info

  20. Encourages transition to IPv6 Orders more scrutiny of IPv4 resource requests Requests Advisory Council to consider policy changes Board Resolution https://www.arin.net/knowledge/about_resources/v6/v6-resolution.html

  21. Raises awareness of IPv4 depletion Encourages active adoption of IPv6 Beginning 18 May 2009, ARIN will require that all applications for IPv4 address space include an attestation of accuracy from an officer of the organization ARIN Letter to CEOs https://www.arin.net/announcements/2009/20090420.html
