- 20. The next wave of Internet growth • Mobile networks with always on mobile devices – IP-based services – Much larger impact on the fundamental nature of the Internet • Research projects 3G and 4G market share to increase to 53% by 2017 20 http://www.gsmamobileeconomy.com/GSMA%20Mobile%20Economy%202013.pdf
- 21. IPv6 in mobile networks • 3G+ and 4G (LTE, TD-LTE): Services on voice, messaging and data are converging on IP-based services • Rapidly increasing global 3G+ and 4G deployment – Some mobile network operators have already deployed IPv6 21 Verizon T-Mobile USA
- 22. Case Study: T-Mobile USA • Reassessment on IP addressing strategy in late 2009 – Lack of IPv4 address space + rapid growth in “always-on” devices – IPv4 does not fit the business need – IPv6 deployment in 3GPP is easy • Feasibility study and impact assessment: 9 months • Started an IPv6 user trial in 2010 on 2G/3G/HSPA network – Settled with IPv6-only + 464XLAT transition technology to make everything work with IPv6-only 22 http://conference.apnic.net/__data/assets/pdf_file/0010/58870/tmo-ipv6-feb-2013_1361827441.pdf
- 23. Case Study: T-Mobile USA T-Mobile USA reconsidered their IP addressing strategy and chose a scalable option 23 Feasibility and impact assessment: 9 months IPv6 user trial in 2010 Reassessment on IP addressing strategy in 2009 Deployed IPv6-only + 464XLAT, Oct 2013
- 24. Case Study: T-Mobile USA • Did not spend any CAPEX to deploy IPv6 • Introduction feature to handsets – A slow and careful process • Android 4.3 introduced support for 464XLAT in Oct 2013 • Launched 5 Android phones with 464XLAT as the default in Oct 2013 – All Android 4.3+ smartphones will be 464XLAT in the future at T- Mobile USA – End users will be assigned with IPv6 as a default – No IPv4 addresses will be assigned 24 https://conference.apnic.net/data/37/464xlat-apricot-2014_1393236641.pdf https://conference.apnic.net/data/37/v6lessonstmo_1393297978.pdf
- 25. Case Study: T-Mobile USA • Result of the above operation – 3.6 million unique IPv6 subscribers are active on the network after five months (as of Feb 2014) – Over 50% of IPv6 user traffic is end-to-end IPv6 – No complicated IPv6 to IPv4 or IPv4 to IPv6 translation needed – This saves CAPEX and OPEX and makes the network simpler 25 https://conference.apnic.net/data/37/464xlat-apricot-2014_1393236641.pdf https://conference.apnic.net/data/37/v6lessonstmo_1393297978.pdf
- 26. Case study: Telstra Australia • Input from Telstra Australia (Sunny Yeung) this morning: – Telstra is committed to introducing IPv6 into its mobile network 26 https://conference.apnic.net/data/37/yeung.-s-ipv6-in-telstra-apipv6tf-apnic37_1392858273.pdf Deploy IPv6 in the core network Acknowledge limitation of CGN Testing IPv6 for the past 3 years The end goal = Support native IPv6
- 27. Conclusions
- 28. Conclusions • IPv6 deployment is increasing steadily – But varies among regions, economies, and individual ASNs – Not happening simultaneously – Some economies and ASNs have been very active in terms of IPv6 deployment • Particularly some mobile network operators and cable TV operators • Once they enable IPv6 in their network and handsets, their end user readiness grows VERY rapidly 28
- 29. Conclusions A recipe for successful IPv6 deployment 29
- 31. APNIC Training and Engineering Assistance • Building capacity with APNIC Training – Topics offered to support resilient and scalable Internet infrastructure • IPv4 to IPv6 Transition, IPv6 Workshop, Network Security, Routing and BGP etc. • Engineering Assistance provided by Internet experts – Cost-recovery basis – Direct assistance – IP peering, IPv4 and IPv6 network, Internet infrastructure security 31 training.apnic.net
- 32. IPv6 Allocation and Assignment size • Delegations from APNIC or TWNIC – Minimum allocation size /32 – Minimum assignment size /48 • Assignments to your customers – using a minimum value of a /64 – up to the normal maximum of /48 32
- 33. APNIC Survey 2014 • 11 -22 June 2014 • Opportunity to provide input on APNIC’s performance, development, and future direction • Contributes to APNIC’s future planning processes • Run by an impartial, independent research organization • Confidentiality of respondents guaranteed 33 survey.apnic.net
- 35. 35 “If you depend on the Internet, then you will depend on IPv6 as a critical part of your business. Now is the time to be asking those who provide you with Internet services and expertise - whether they are ISPs, vendors, data centres, developers, staff, or consultants - how they will support IPv6 services for you in future.” Paul Wilson, APNIC Director General
