Understanding IPv6: Address Allocation and Transition from IPv4

This talk provides an overview of IPv6, focusing on its significance in the context of IPv4 address exhaustion. It discusses the available address pool, including the allocation of /8 address ranges and the current status as of May 2010. The presentation elaborates on the dual addressing scheme often used, the importance of link-local and global unicast addresses, and how IPv4 and IPv6 can coexist. It also highlights key resources for further learning, including the Federal IPv6 Transition Timeline.

Presentation Transcript

  1. Introduction to IPv6

  2. 90% of this talk is stolen • I got it here • CNIT 202E, link IPv6 8

  3. IPv4 Exhaustion • Available pool is 18 "/8 address ranges" • Each /8 has 16.8 Million Addresses • 203 already allocated • 35 Reserved for special uses • Data from 5-13-2010, CNIT 202E, link IPv6 3

  4. The End is Near

  5. :: can be used once to represent a string of zeroes

  6. From Zytrax: link IPv6 10

  7. IPv6 - IPv4 Addresses • A hybrid format may be used when dealing with IPv6 - IPv4 addresses where the normal IPv4 dotted decimal notation may be used after the first 6, 16 bit address elements:

  8. Examples

  9. Multiple Addresses • Note: Interfaces normally have two addresses, or even more • Link-local FE80::w.x.y.z • Global unicast

  10. Used by Ethernet

  11. Example Interface MAC 00-40-63-ca-9a-20 IPv6 Interface ID (EUI-64) ::0040:63FF:FECA:9A20 or ::40:63FF:FECA:9A20 link local FE80::40:63FF:FECA:9A20

  12. AAAA Records in DNS • iana.org and ipv6.net work too

  13. In CNIT 202E - Link IPv6 1

  14. CNIT 202E - Link IPv6 2 (from 2003)

  15. Federal IPv6 Transition Timeline • Cisco, Sept 2009 (CNIT 202E, link IPv6 9)
