  1. IPv6: Making The Dream Real Jawad KhakiVice-President Windows Networking & CommunicationsMicrosoft Corporation

  2. Agenda • Trends • The Opportunity • Key Problems • The Promise of IPv6 • What is Microsoft doing • Call to Action

  3. Evolution Of The Web Transactions Business Presence Publish Info Process Transactions Digital Economy

  4. TrendsPublic Network • Data traffic exceeds Voice traffic • Carriers shifting to network designs that favor packets • High broadband adoption in geographies where available • Carriers responding to demand • Wireless deployments everywhere • Rush to serve data over Cellular networks: 2.5-3G • WiFi usage growing rapidly

  5. TrendsComputing • Moore’s Law still going strong • Smaller, more computing devices every 18 months • Miniaturization continues • 100Gb per square inch hard disk density • 128MB memory on a single chip • Dramatic innovation towards longer battery time • Low power CPUs from Intel, Transmeta, AMD • Fuel Cell battery (1 month cell phone usage) in the horizon • Smaller, lighter PC, PDA, phone designs enabling new networking scenarios • TVs on Cell phones, Wearable computers, digital cash, eBooks

  6. TrendsApplications • XML revolution leading to web services • Peer-to-Peer enables compelling scenarios • “Presence” a paradigm shift in Real Time Communications and Collaboration • Net attached Consumer Electronics and Gaming appliances emerging • Applications assuming always on connectivity, anywhere

  7. The Opportunity

  8. Key Problems • Address Shortage • Not enough IPv4 addresses available • Disproportionate allocation • Increasing number of devices and Always On experience exacerbate the problem • Lack of Mobility • Applications and network protocols break in mobile scenarios • Network Security • Always On == Always attacked!

  9. Key ProblemsAddress Shortage Extrapolating the number of DNS registered addresses shows total exhaustion in 2009. But the practical maximum is about 200 M addresses, in 2002-2003.

  10. Key ProblemsAddress Shortage • Peer to Peer applications require • Addressability of each end point • Unconstrained inbound and outbound traffic • Direct communication between end points using multiple concurrent protocols • NATs are a band-aid to address shortage • Block inbound traffic on listening ports • Constrain traffic to “understood” protocols • Create huge barrier to deployment of P2P applications

  11. Key ProblemsLack of Mobility • Existing applications and networking protocols do not work with changing IP addresses • Applications do not “reconnect” when a new IP address appears • TCP drops session when IP address changes • IPSEC hashes across IP addresses, changing address breaks the Security Association • Mobile IPv4 solution is not deployable • Foreign agent reliance not realistic • NATs and Mobile IPv4? Just say NO

  12. Key ProblemsNetwork Security • Always On == Always attacked! • Consumers deploying NATs and Personal Firewalls • Enterprises deploying Network Firewalls • NATs and Network Firewalls break end-to-end semantics • Barrier to deploying Peer to Peer applications • Barrier to deploying new protocols • Block end-to-end, authorized, tamper-proof, private communication • No mechanisms for privacy at the network layer • IP addresses expose information about the user • No transparent way to restrict communication within network boundaries

  13. The Promise of IPv6 • Enough addresses • 64+64 format: 1.8E+19 networks, units • assuming IPv4 efficiency: 1E+16 networks, 1 million networks per human • 20 networks per m2 of Earth (2 per sqft ) • Removes need to stretch addresses with NATs • True mobility • No reliance on Foreign Agents • Better network layer security • IPSec delivers end-to-end security • Link/Site Local addresses allow partitioning • Anonymous addresses provide privacy

  14. The Promise of IPv6Example: Multiparty Conference, using IPv6 P1 P2 Home LAN Home LAN Internet • With a NAT: • Brittle “workaround”. • With IPv6: • Just use IPv6 addresses Home Gateway Home Gateway P3

  15. The Promise of IPv6If IPv6 is so great, how come it is not there yet? • Applications • Need upfront investment, stacks, etc. • Similar to Y2K, 32 bit vs. “clean address type” • Network • Need to ramp-up investment • No “push-button” transition networks ? applications

  16. What is Microsoft doing • Building a complete IPv6 stack in Windows • Technology Preview stack in Win2000 • Developer stack in Windows XP • Deployable stack in .NET Server & update for Windows XP • Windows CE planned • Supporting IPv6 with key applications protocols • File sharing, Web (IIS, IE), Games (DPlay), Peer to Peer platform, UPnP • Building v4->v6 transition strategies • Scenario focused tool-box

  17. What is Microsoft doingIPv6 deployment tool-box • IPv6 stateless address auto-configuration • Router announces a prefix, client configures an address • 6to4: Automatic tunneling of IPv6 over IPv4 • Derives IPv6 /48 network prefix from IPv4 global address • Automatic tunneling of IPv6 over UDP/IPv4 • Works through NAT, may be blocked by firewalls • ISATAP: Automatic tunneling of IPv6 over IPv4 • For use behind a firewall.

  18. What is Microsoft doingRecommended Strategies • In the home • Use IPv6 if available, • Or use 6to4 if global IPv4 address, • Or use IPv6 over UDP • In the enterprise • Use IPv6 ISP or 6to4 for external access, • Use ISATAP while upgrading the network

  19. What is Microsoft doingAddressing hard problems • Domain Names and IPv6 have issues • Peer to Peer applications require dynamic registration of IPv6 address • DDNS is hard to deploy securely on the internet • Workarounds require building alternate namespaces or avoiding names altogether • Ease of use is a must • Need an easy way to get Mobile IPv6 addresses • Need an easy way to resolve names in a IPv6 Ad-hoc network (DNS Server not reachable)

  20. In Summary… We Build Together • Microsoft is moving quickly to enable Windows platforms for IPv6 • Up to date information on: http://www.microsoft.com/ipv6/ • Send us feedback and requirements mailto:ipv6-fb@microsoft.com • We need your help to move the world to a simple ubiquitous network based on IPv6

  21. Call to Action • Network Providers: Build it and they will come • Do not settle for NATs for new designs • Demand IPv6 support on all equipment • Offer native IPv6 services • Device Vendors: Design for the simpler, ubiquitous IPv6 internet • Application Writers: Don’t wait on the above • Use Windows XP and Windows .NET Server NOW!

  22. Microsoft Vision Empower peoplethrough great software anytime, anyplace,and on any device

  23. Background Material

  24. 6to4: tunnel IPv6 over IPv4 1.2.3.4 192.88.99.1 2002:102:304::b… 3001:2:3:4:c… 6to4-A Relay C A Native IPv6 IPv4 Internet • 6to4 router derive IPv6 prefix from IPv4 address, • 6to4 relays advertise reachability of prefix 2002::/16 • Automatic tunneling from 6to4 routers or relays • Single address (192.88.99.1) for all relays 2002:506:708::b… B Relay 6to4-B 5.6.7.8 192.88.99.1

  25.
