Static IPv6 in GÉANT and Internet2 LSRa joint effort by ARNES, DANTE, RedIRIS and Juniper TF-NGN meeting Budapest, 17-18 Oct 2002
GÉANT IPv6 deployment planactivity • by the end of 2002 • dual-stacked routers in GÉANT • static IPv6 routes • part of these activities: IPv6 land speed tests • dynamic routing in 2003
Members of the team • ARNES • Avgust Jauk, Boštjan Lemut, Matjaž Straus • DANTE • Agnès Pouélé, Roberto Sabatino • RedIRIS • Esther Robles, David Martínez, Miguel Angel Sotos Rodriguez • Juniper • Jean-Marc Uze, technical support (Bruno De Troch) • and many others
IPv6 LSRpreparation • choosing hosts • hardware • 1.1/1.3GHz 2xPIII CPU, 1GB RAM • Intel PRO/1000 XT and 82543 GE Adapter • software • Linux (2.4 kernel) • iperf v1.62, wu-ftpd-2.6.2-/pure-ftpd-1.0.12-1, ncftp-3.1.3-4.ipv6.2 • TCP stack parameters • RAM disks • Juniper routers • JUNOS 5.3R2.4 and 5.3R3.3 tested by DANTE • additional hardware: tunnel PIC (lent by Juniper)
IPv6 LSRtest plan • IPv4 performance tests • IPv6-in-IPv4 tunnel • with test routers • with production routers • native IPv6 • single stream and multiple stream • two paths: • direct path Ljubljana – Madrid • long path via New York
IPv6 LSRfirst path • SI-AT-CH-IT-ES • 2518 km • 62 ms RTT • 480/490 Mb/s
IPv6 LSRsecond path • SI-AT-NY-UK-FR-CH-IT-ES • 14.800 km • 229 ms RTT • 350/400 Mb/s
IPv6 LSRentries in Internet2 competition • single stream on first path - 1215 Tbm/s • accepted as a new Internet2 record (04 Oct 2002) • single and multiple stream on a longer path (5154/5894 Tbm/s) • submitted on 09 Oct 2002, but not accepted yet
IPv6 LSRconclusion • IPv6 forwarding in GÉANT comparable with IPv4 • no problems observed on double-stacked Juniper routers • much more to be done to deploy IPv6 in the near future (dynamic routing, management etc)
