  2. Agenda • Overview of the IPv6 TF activities • Evangelization, support and training • Public policy • Deployment projects • Lesson learnt & conclusion

  3. Overview of the IPv6 TF activities

  4. IPv6 R&D for more than 10 years • Strong R&D activities • Universities and high schools: ENSTB, IRISA, INRIA, Strasbourg, Nancy, Grenoble, LIP6… • Industry: Dassault then 6WIND, FT, Renault, Alcatel… • Defense projects: Hipnet (US-FR), INSC (Nato) • National RNRT projects • Parcipation to European programs • Associations • G6: academic and industry experts • GN6: academic IPv6 user's group • Aristote: experts and users • TFF to promote deployment • AFNIC : first European IPv6 ready DNS • RENATER: first IPv6 ready NREN in Europe • 6WIND : first startup providing IPv6 ready products

  5. TFF Story • September 2002: Creation of IPv6 TFF at French Senate • January 2003: Support brought by Claudie Haigneré, French Minister for Research and New Technologies • IPv6 pavilion at N+I Paris 2003 • November 2003: Recommendations for a Strategic Plan in the Development and Implementation of IPv6 Technologies in France • About 300 members • Bimonthly meetings, press conference, regular journalist interviews, participation to conferences, etc.

  6. Last Events Next IPv6 European Summit, November 13-15 2006 Cannes, FRANCE

  7. Evangelization, support & training

  8. Evangelization • Articles in news papers • Conferences (GN6/Aristote activity) • The GN6 IPv6 conferences : • http://aristote1.aristote.asso.fr/Presentations/indexCIPv6.html • Broadcasted live over the RENATER network • Next event : The V6 Day, June 6, 2006 • http://www.aristote.asso.fr/V6Day2006/ • Reference book on IPv6 (G6 activity) : • IPv6 Théorie et pratique , edited by O'Reilly • High-level pedagogical slides (G6 activity) • More than 400 slides, frequently used within academic learning events • E-learning on IPv6 : • http://www.aristote.asso.fr/Canal-RA/index.html • http://www.aristote.asso.fr/Canal-RA/indexIPMulticast.html • http://www.aristote.asso.fr/Canal-RA/IPv6.html

  9. 2 DVD bookson the new Internet Oct 2004 : ‘IPv6 : le nouvel Internet’ Nov 2005 : ‘Internet : foresight & governance Philippe LEQUESNE plequesne@ctn.asso.fr

  10. DVD book ‘IPv6 : le nouvel internet’ • Cooperation with 20 partners • oct 2004 : the first e-learning tool on IPv6 • 90 min DVD : 13 speakers • + 16 pages booklet • QCM • http://www.isi.unicaen.fr/CTN.php

  11. 2006 : 2 new e-learning DVD’s on IPv6 • IPv6 : the new Internet • for the EU TF6 • english • An intro to IPv6 technologies • french / english • for network engineers

  12. IPv6 Skill Center • Located in Brittany (West of France) • For one year (2005) • Organization is evolving to take into account commercial activities and the creation of a new R&D Cluster With the support of :

  13. A bipolar organization • Goal: to promote IPv6 towards SME • GET/ENST Bretagne (L. Toutain) • IPv6 expertise support : training, software & system design • INRIA/IRISA – Armor (C. Viho) • IPv6 protocols conformance and interoperability tests • European Lab working on the IPv6 Ready Logo Program  • Provides support to companies wanted to test the conformance of IPv6 products www.point6.net

  14. Point6’s open call available and opened to any company (industrials, small and medium companies, very small companies) and any public organization in Europe willing to know more about IPv6 or access our IPv6 tests platform CONTACTS for test aspects: César Viho, Annie Floch info@point6.net http://www.point6.net/ www.point6.net

  15. Normandy Task Force • Task Force meeting every quarter • IPv6 is available on the regional VIKMAN network • Universities, schools, public sector • Can be be used by companies if R&D purpose • Creation of an IPv6 portal to support regional actions and provide pointers on national/international sites • Region eases the use of IPv6 ready products • Region can fund innovative IPv6 projects/developments

  16. Public policy

  17. IPv6 in Public sectors • We have the .fr DNSv6 • That means .gouv.fr is v6 • That means .defense.gouv.fr is v6 • That means all agencies can move!! • We have IPv6 NREN & some RREN • RENATER • 17 RREN (regional & Metropolitan) • 63 university networks connected natively • More than 100 /48 allocated • Ministry of Defense defined procurement rules • National Backbone is upgrading with v6 • V6 addressing plan defined

  18. Promoting IPv6 in Universities • Ministry of Research finances a project named ADIRE to promote the deployment of IPv6, to define general rules to apply, and to experiment mobility services. 11 Universities are involved

  19. ADIRE to promote Method and rules • http://ipv6.u-strasbg.fr

  20. Deployment projects

  21. Too limited number of projects • More and more questions • More and more training and tests • But IPv6 is NOT YET a priority for many companies!!!! • Among the actors: • France Telecom (FT) • Gonfreville-Lorcher (Metropolitan Net)

  22. FT IPv6 deployment • Commercial IP wordwide network (OpenTransit): • 50 POPs worldwide are Dual Stack since June 2005 • Nationwide IPv6 broadband access experiment launched by France Telecom/Wanadoo to its Internet clients in June 2005 • IPv6 connectivity based on 3 technics:Teredo, Tunnel Broker and ADSL+ • A P2P application "Wanadoo Responsive" dedicated to social network services sector • http://www.ipv6.wanadoo.fr • FT was recently assigned a larger IPv6 prefix (/19) in December 30th,2005

  23. Gonfreville-Lorcher deployment • On going experiment: • Use of TabletPCs at school as well as library or at home • FTTH IPv6 infra: • 100 Mb/s at home • IPv4 and IPv6 • City service on environmental & industrial risks • Service starts end 2006

  24. Lesson learnt

  25. Building a new infra is difficult !! Why? Do I need it? When? What’s the risk? Can I avoid? What the cost? What is the Business model?

  26. Broadband explosion but no v6! Fix lines : 35,3 millions, Q2 2005 Mobiles : 45 millions, Q2 2005 Broadband access: 7,9 millions, Q2 2005 The box phenomena! Mobile Internet users: 10,7 millions ?

  27. We are still on the bottom of the curb • IPv6 is still an early stage technology • We don’t have any commercial offer from ISPs • Only few companies have IPv6 ready products • But: • We have v6 in more and more public infrastructure • Few consultant firms start to provide expertise • Large companies are defining plans to have products or services in 2008

  28. My comments • Only big players can accelerate the global deployment process • As we have v6 in public networks, we need to work on new applications using this infrastructure • E-plublic-services (e-health, e-care, e-safe…) • We have to target vertical applications where v6 seems to be an obvious solution • Defense, Transportation systems… • And M2M • We have to address the emerging market of the Mobile Internet

  29. My Questions? • How to accelerate the creation of new innovative projects? • Country/ region level • New product or service • New startup taking advantage of v6 • How to create a business interest on v6?

  30. Questions?
