This draft discusses various deployment scenarios for IPv6 in 802.16(e) networks, including mobile access, point-to-point links, and fixed/nomadic deployment. It covers infrastructure changes, addressing, transport, routing, and mobility considerations.

IPv6 Deployment Scenarios in 802.16(e) Networksdraft-ietf-v6ops-802-16-deployment-scenarios-01 Myung-Ki Shin, ETRI Youn-Hee Han, KUT Sang-Eon Kim, KT DomagojPremec, Siemens Mobile IETF-67 v6ops WG@ San Diego, CA, USA
Changes since IETF-66 • Sang-Eon (KT) and Domagoj (Siemens) are added as co-authors • Authors discussed about scenarios with 16ng experts • Myung-Ki talked about this draft at 16ng interim (Sep. 12) • Reviewed by three v6ops experts (Jonne, Alain, Jordi) • Scenarios and terms were more clearly defined • Mobile Access Deployment Scenario • Shared IPv6 Prefix Link Model and Point-to-point Link Model • Fixed/Nomadic Deployment Scenario • CS type per scenario was recommended • The following IPv6 impacts were described • IPv6 Related Infrastructure Changes • Addressing • IPv6 Transport • Routing • Mobility, etc.
Mobile Access Deployment • Shared IPv6 Prefix Link Model • All MSs and corresponding interface of AR share the same IPv6 prefix +-----+ | MS1 |<-(16)-+ +-----+ | +-----+ | +-----+ +-----+ +--------+ | MS2 |<-(16)-+----| BS1 |--+->| AR |----| Edge | ISP +-----+ +-----+ | +-----+ | Router +==>Network | +--------+ +-----+ +-----+ | | MS3 |<-(16)-+----| BS2 |--+ +-----+ | +-----+ +-----+ | | MS4 |<-(16)-+ +-----+
Mobile Access Deployment, cont. • Point-to-Point Link Model • Each connection to a mobile node is treated as a single link. +-----+ | MS1 |<-(16)---------+ +-----+ | +-----+ +-----+ +-----+ +--------+ | MS2 |<-(16)------| BS1 |--+->| AR |----| Edge | ISP +-----+ +-----+ | +-----+ | Router +==>Network | +--------+ +-----+ +-----+ | | MS3 |<-(16)------| BS2 |--+ +-----+ +-----+ +-----+ | | MS4 |<-(16)---------+ +-----+
IPv6 Impact • IPv6 Related Infrastructure Changes • MS, AR, ER should be upgraded to IPv6 (BS is L3 unaware) • If the IP aware equipments between the AR and the ER do not support IPv6, the service providers can deploy IPv6-in-IPv4 tunneling to transport IPv6 packets between the AR and the ER. • Addressing • Shared Prefix : Single prefix can be shared for all the attached MSs. • P-to-P : A unique prefix can be allocated to each link.
IPv6 Impact, cont. • IPv6 Transport • Shared Prefix : DAD optimization is required / P-to-P : DAD is easy • IPv6 CS is preferred • Routing • MS is configured with a default route that points to the AR • The AR should support IPv6 routing protocol such as OSPFv3 or IS-IS for IPv6 when connected to the ER with multiple links. Prefix summarization should be done at the ER.
Fixed/Nomadic Deployment • Ethernet like Link Model • Hot zone Deployment (broader than Hot spot) • Wireless DSL (DSL Replacement) +-----+ +---+ +-----+ +-----+ ISP 1 | MS1 |<-(16)+ | | +-->| AR |----| ER1 |===>Network +-----+ | | b| | +-----+ +-----+ +-----+ | +-----+ |E r| | | MS2 |<-(16)+-----| BS1 |-----|t i| | +-----+ +-----+ |h d|--+ | g| | +-----+ +-----+ ISP 2 +-----+ +-----+ | e| +-->| BRAS|----| ER2 |===>Network |MS/GW|<-(16)------| BS2 |-----| | | +-----+ +-----+ +-----+ +-----+ +---+ | | +-----+ +-----+ | | TE |<-(DSL)-----|DSLAM|------------+ +-----+ +-----+ +-----+ |Hosts|<--> +-----+ This network behind MS may exist
IPv6 Impact • IPv6 Related Infrastructure Changes • BRAS provides the functionality of the AR • Ethernet bridge may provide some IPv6 specific functions to increase link efficiency of the 802.16 link (e.g., DAD optimization) • Addressing • Multiple prefixes can be shared to all the attached MSs. • Prefix delegation can be required since networks can exist behind MS • IPv6 Transport • DAD optimization is required • Ethernet CS is preferred • Routing • IPv6 multi-homing considerations exist • If there exist multiple ARs to support MSs, a default router must be selected.
Next Steps • The draft is stable and well-written. • It is ready to go to WGLC.
