This study focuses on the auto-configuration mechanism for ISP-to-customer network interfaces in IPv6. The goal is to define the minimum requirements for IPv6 access services for non-technical customers. The study covers various interfaces and addresses in the network and addresses challenges in the IPv6 world.

User Network Interface- auto-configuration mechanism - Toshi Yamasaki IPv6 Operation Study Group / NTT Communications
Goal • IPv6 access services for everyone (non-technical customers) in 2002 • ex) DSL, FTTH, D-up, CATV, etc. • Make a rough consensus for “what are minimum requirements for ISP-to-Customer auto-configuration?” • No absolute conclusion, but need a current conclusion to start businesses
Scope Host Host Host Service Service Service • ISP-to-Customer Environment • PE-to-CPE Interface • CPE-to-Host Interface ISP Here Here POI PE CPE access media LAN
Auto-configured Parameters • Site Address Prefix / Host Address • DNS Cache Address
Typical model in IPv4 world Host Host Host Service Service Service POI ISP PE CPE access media LAN Primary DNS Secondary DNS Physical NAS PSTN/DSL L3Router Ethernet PC Scope of Address Global Global Private Private Site Address / Host Address } IPCP DHCP DNS Cache Address
Challenges for IPv6 world... • universality • should be applicable for various medias • shouldn’t assume PPP(IPv6CP) • “third-party-serverless” auto-configuration • should be auto-configured by the service entity itself, only when it is alive • Site-Prefix by who provide the routing service for the prefix, DNS Cache Address by who provide DNS Cache service • non-PC • Hosts are not always powerful • no heavy requirements
