Outline: • Background • Types of IPv6 • Features of IPv6 • IPv4 Vs. IPv6 • IPv6 Routing • IPv6 Address Space • conclusion
Background • Definition.. • Why IPv6 ?
Types of IPv6 Addresses • Unicast – Address of a single interface – One-to-one delivery to single interface • Multicast – Address of a set of interfaces – One-to-many delivery to all interfaces in the set • Anycast – Address of a set of interfaces – One-to-one-of-many delivery to a single interface in the set that is closest • No more broadcast addresses
Features of IPv6 • Larger address space • Stateless address auto-configuration • Multicast • Link-local Address • Network Layer Security • Mobility
IPv6 Routing • Open Shortest Path First (OSPF) • Routing Information Protocol (RIP) • Inter Domain Routing Protocol (IDRP) • Intermediate System to Intermediate System Protocol (ISIS) # Additional : • IPv6 Extinction Header (Routing Header)
IPv6 Address Space • 128-bit address space – 2128possible addresses – 340,282,366,920,938,463,463,374,607,431,768,211,456 addresses or (3.4 x 10^38) – 6.65 x 10^23 addresses per square metre of Earth’s surface • 128 bits were chosen to allow multiple levels of hierarchy and flexibility in designing hierarchical addressing and routing • Typical unicast IPv6 address: – 64 bits for subnet ID, 64 bits for interface ID
Summary • IPv6 is the natural future of the Internet
