Internet Evangelist promotes IPv6 to the ISP World |
Tokyo-Luxembourg-Boston - June 22, 2009 - The IPv6 Forum and
its sub-organization, the IPv6 Ready Logo Committee, today announced
the introduction of a new IPv6 Enabled Logo Program aimed at testing
and validating Internet Service Providers (ISPs) for IPv6 readiness
and adoption.
"IPv6
needs to be integrated and offered as a service by all ISPs to sustain
Internet growth and by the same token drive end-to-end innovation" said Dr. Vint Cerf, Internet Evangelist,
Google & Honorary Chair, IPv6 Forum
The IPv6 Forum IPv6 Ready Logo program
has clearly demonstrated the widespread support of IPv6 in products.
The impressive list of vendors indicates the number of potential IPv6
users ready to use IPv6 and represents a real incentive for ISPs to
enable IPv6 access for their customers.
The IPv6 Forum has been tracking the
adoption of IPv6 at ISPs and recognized the need for a quality assurance
logo program for ISPs. The creation of this new logo program will support
IPv6 deployment in networks at ISPs with the goal of sustaining quality
IPv6 services.
"The
IPv6 Enabled ISP Logo Program will support ISPs in verifying and validating
the integration of IPv6 in their networks when refreshing or building
their IPv6 Internet infrastructure"
said Latif Ladid, IPv6 Forum President.
" The
ISPs were the prime drivers of the IPv4 Internet and they are now even
more crucial for the IPv6 Internet"
states Yanick Pouffary, Chair v6 Ready/Enabled Programs, NAv6TF
Technology Director, IPv6 Forum Fellow.
"We
recognize the fact that the market needs the IPv6 Enabled ISP Logo to
accelerate the introduction of IPv6 technology,"
said Hiroshi Esaki, Chairman of the IPv6 Logo Committee, Executive
Director of IPv6 Promotion Council Japan and Board member of the WIDE
Project.
Liu Dong, Chair v6 Enabled Program,
China IPv6 Council, commented, "We
deployed this IPv6 ISP logo program to foster deployment of IPv6 for
the ISP world and we are looking forward to a positive response."
About the IPv6 Forum

Internet Evangelist promotes IPv6 to the Web World |
Tokyo-Luxembourg-Boston - June 8, 2009 - The IPv6 Forum and its sub-organization, the IPv6 Ready Logo Committee, today announced the introduction of a new IPv6 Enabled Logo Program aimed at testing and validating Web sites (WWW) for IPv6 readiness and adoption.
"This program is a good step in the right direction. IPv6 needs to be integrated in all web sites:" states Dr. Vint Cerf, Internet Evangelist, Google & Honorary Chair, IPv6 Forum
The IPv6 Forum IPv6 Ready Logo program has clearly demonstrated the widespread support of IPv6 in products. The impressive list of vendors indicates the number of potential IPv6 users ready to use IPv6 and represents a real incentive for web site owners to enable IPv6 access for their customers.
The IPv6 Forum has been tracking the adoption of IPv6 by Web sites and recognized the need for a quality assurance logo program for the Web world. The creation of the new logo program will support IPv6 deployment on Web sites with the goal of sustaining quality IPv6 solutions.
"The launch of the IPv6 Enabled WWW Logo Program is another strategic milestone that signals good integration of IPv6 for Web sites must be sustained to build the new Internet infrastructure" states Latif Ladid, IPv6 Forum President.
"The Web was the first killer app of the IPv4 Internet and no doubt it will be one of them for the IPv6 Internet" states Yanick Pouffary, NAv6TF Technology Director, IPv6 Forum Fellow and advisor to the IPv6 ready Logo program.
"We recognize the fact that the market needs the IPv6 Enabled WWW Logo to accelerate the introduction of IPv6 technology," states Hiroshi Esaki, Chairman of the IPv6 Logo Committee, Executive Director of IPv6 Promotion Council Japan and Board member of the WIDE Project.
Liu Dong, Chair China IPv6 Council, commented, "We deployed this IPv6 logo program to foster deployment of IPv6 for the Web world and we are looking forward to a positive response."

ARIN Board Advises Internet Community on Migration to IPv6
Posted: Mon, 21 May 2007
ARIN and the other Regional Internet Registries have distributed Internet Protocol version 6, IPv6, alongside IPv4 since 1999. To date, ARIN has issued both protocol versions in tandem and has not advocated one over the other. ARIN has closely monitored trends in demand and distribution for both protocol versions with the understanding that the IPv4 available resource pool would continue to diminish.
The available IPv4 resource pool has now been reduced to the point that ARIN is compelled to advise the Internet community that migration to IPv6 is necessary for any applications that require ongoing availability from ARIN of contiguous IP number resources.
On 7 May 2007, the ARIN Board of Trustees passed the following resolution:
RESOLUTION OF THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES OF ARIN ON INTERNET PROTOCOL NUMBERING RESOURCE AVAILABILITY
WHEREAS, community access to Internet Protocol (IP) numbering Resources has proved essential to the successful growth of the Internet; and,
WHEREAS, ongoing community access to Internet Protocol version 4 (IPv4) numbering resources can not be assured indefinitely; and,
WHEREAS, Internet Protocol version 6 (IPv6) numbering resources are available and suitable for many Internet applications,
BE IT RESOLVED, that this Board of Trustees hereby advises the Internet community that migration to IPv6 numbering resources is necessary for any applications which require ongoing availability from ARIN of contiguous IP numbering resources; and,
BE IT ORDERED, that this Board of Trustees hereby directs ARIN staff to take any and all measures necessary to assure veracity of applications to ARIN for IPv4 numbering resources; and,
BE IT RESOLVED, that this Board of Trustees hereby requests the ARIN Advisory Council to consider Internet Numbering Resource Policy changes advisable to encourage migration to IPv6 numbering resources where possible.
Implementation of this resolution will include both internal and external components. Internally, ARIN will review its resource request procedures and continue to provide policy experience reports to the Advisory Council. Externally, ARIN will send progress announcements to the ARIN community as well as the wider technical audience, government agencies, and media outlets. ARIN will produce new documentation, from basic introductory fact sheets to FAQs on how this resolution will affect users in the region. ARIN will focus on IPv6 in many of its general outreach activities, such as speaking engagements, trade shows, and technical community meetings.

Metronet6

An example of MetroNet6 is as follows. In a U.S. city or town the State Police, Fireman, Hospital 911 Personnel, Local Police, and any other required Local Authorities would have Handheld Devices that would have their own Metropolitan Network (MetroNet6) for Voice, Video, Graphics, Intelligence, Medical, and other forms of data through multimedia communications 24x7x365. This MetroNet6 would emulate a Command Control Center, using Moonv6 www.moonv6.org, over the Internet to an emulated National Homeland Security Office securely for communications updates. The MetroNet6 would support both wireless and wireline technology as the physical medium for communications and the integration of wireless and wireline so either can be used on the MetroNet6. The MetroNet6 would support the ability for a command center to be established in an Ad Hoc manner to communicate with the MetroNet6 Homeland Security force and emulatedNational Homeland Security Office using wireless or wireline communications. In addition, the MetroNet6 over time should be able to add additional Ad Hoc Sub-Networks in as required such as the emulation National Guard, Air Command, or other U.S. Agencies that must connect to the MetroNet6 during a 911 disaster.

Recent large catastrophes and crisis situations like the Tsunami at the end of 2004 and the Katrina hurricane of September 2005 dramatically showed the importance of communication to prevent the deaths of thousands of people. The global warming and global dimming are a poignant reality now and addressing them is indeed not a trivial task at all fronts. Based on the u-2010 vision, several critical issues and solutions will be discussed: Circle vision: Preparedness, Alert, Response, Recovery, Post-disaster, Prevention & Mitigation; Integrated data, voice and video involved during accidents, emergencies, catastrophes and crises; Real time updated digital directories; Harmonised National standardized Protocols; Virtual crisis centres; Access of government to GSM/UMTS location registers; Access to essential assets; Cellular on wheels over satellite stations; Networking everything over IP (IPv4-IPv6).
