- D2.3.4: Final IPv4 to IPv6 transition cookbook for end site networks/universities
This is the final version of an IPv4 to IPv6 transition cookbook for end site networks and/or universities. After an introduction to the basics of transitioning from IPv4 to IPv6 (which presently is generally done by moving to dual-stack networking) and a brief description of each mechanism on a theoretical basis, we give a description of some example scenarios to give the reader an idea of where and when to employ certain transition methods and how different mechanisms work together and complement each other. The document then focuses on installation and configuration examples.

- D2.5.3: Final Report on IPv6 Deployment Issues (missing pieces for IPv6 deployment and IPv6-only operation)
This report is a discussion and summary of issues that remain to be resolved for IPv6 deployment to be realised in both site and ISP networks. The report focuses on IPv6 components and 'missing pieces' that still require attention in either standardisation processes or within appropriate bodies essential to successful deployment. The scope has changed from the original aim of reporting on IPv6-only networking issues; the broader coverage of general IPv6 deployment issues is more appropriate to this initial scoping report. This document updates and is in effect a final version of Deliverables D2.5.1 and D2.5.2.

- D2.2.4: Final IPv4 to IPv6 Transition Cookbook for Organisational/ISP (NREN) and Backbone Networks
This is a description of the IPv6 transition mechanisms available to the National Research and Education Networks (NRENs) who are part of the 6NET project. The mechanisms need to operate to complement those that provide an IPv6 service to the end users in the universities. We review the mechanisms, state the current usage of those mechanisms, and describe some of the scenarios for NREN transition. This is the final release of the cookbook series, updated three times during the lifetime of the 6NET project.

The next part of the document then focuses on installation and configuration examples. The deliverable is a "living document" and as such will be updated and revised whenever there is new or different material available, up until the point of the final version due in December 2004 (Deliverable D2.3.4). This version is D2.3.3-bis1, the first update to D2.3.3.

- D2.1.1: IPv4 to IPv6 migration scoping report for core networks
This aims to provide an overview about existing transition mechanisms which are useful for a smooth integration of IPv6 into IPv4 core (backbone) networks. Transition scenarios are discussed on the example of the GÉANT network as a pan-European network, which is a potential candidate for an IPv4 to IPv6 transition in the near future. Moreover, experiences and implementation details about the MPLS/CCC encapsulated IPv6 as one of the deployment strategies are provided, which is used to connect Greece, Poland and Hungary to the 6NET core network.

WP3: Basic Network Services
- D3.6.2: Cookbook for IPv6 Renumbering in ISP and Enterprise Networks
In this text we present the results of a set of experiments, focused on the context of enterprise networks, that are designed to be a step towards analysing how effective network renumbering procedures may be in the context of IPv6. An IPv6 site will need to get provider assigned (PA) address space from its upstream ISP. Because provider independent (PI) address space is not available for IPv6, a site wishing to change provider will need to renumber from its old network prefix to the new one. In a previous deliverable, D3.6.1, we looked at the scenarios, issues and enablers for such renumbering. Here we present results and conclusions and updated recommendations in the context of additional SOHO tests and for new experiments undertaken in enterprise (campus renumbering. Reporting on ISP renumbering is limited; the reader is instead referred to D.3.6.1 for backbone network renumbering results.

Published: 14 June 2005
- D3.2.3: DHCPv6 implementation and test report, 3rd Version
This describes the developments in DHCP6 implementations since the last version of this document. There are several RFCs concerning different types of DHCPv6 servers. Only some of them could be considered complete and working for today. As DHCPv6 is a vital part for easy administration these tools urgently need further development.

- D3.6.1: Cookbook for IPv6 Renumbering in SOHO and Backbone Networks.
This text presents the results of a set of experiments that are designed to be a first step in the process of analysing how effective network renumbering procedures may be in the context of IPv6. An IPv6 site will need to get provider assigned (PA) address space from its upstream ISP. Because provider independent (PI) address space is not available for IPv6, a site wishing to change provider will need to renumber from its old network prefix to the new one. We look at the scenarios, issues and enablers for such renumbering, and present results and initial conclusions and recommendations in the context of SOHO and backbone networking. A subsequent deliverable (D3.6.2) will refine these findings, adding additional results and context from enterprise and ISP renumbering scenarios.

- D3.1.2: IPv6 cookbook for routing, DNS, intra-domain multicast, inter-domain multicast, and security, 2nd Version
In many ways, the issues of IPv6 routing, IPv6 DNS, IPv6 multicast and security are very similar to the corresponding tasks in IPv4, which the authors of this document assumes the reader is familiar with. This deliverable rather focuses on the differences between IPv6 and IPv4 in these areas and therefore builds on the IPv4 knowledge and understanding of the reader to enable him to extend or migrate his network to IPv6.
Published: 20 January 2005
- D3.5.1: Secure IPv6 Operation: Lessons learned from 6NET, 3rd Version
This Deliverable describes IPv6 security issues revealed and studied through the 6NET operation. The document, as part of Activity 3.5 (Network Security), examines security measures suitable for the 6NET network infrastructure, and general IPv6 deployments.
Published: 20 January 2005
- D3.4.2: Inter-domain Multicast
A general purpose multicast inter-domain service is lacking for IPv6, and in practice also for IPv4. We describe two possible solutions to provide this service: inter-domain ASM multicast with the Embedded-RP mechanism, and inter-domain SSM multicast with a source discovery mechanism.
Published: 10 December 2004
- D3.2.1: IPv6 DNS service for the 6NET Network, 2nd Version
This document describes the requirements, some DNS technology background and documents the initial setup for the DNS service for 6NET (both forward DNS and reverse DNS), which is required to support the early operational phase of 6NET.
Published: 9 April 2004
- D3.2.2: Proxy DNS Installed
This describes the DNS proxy `totd' that is being developed by the 6NET project to provide DNS support for a variety of IPv4/IPv6 transitioning mechanisms. The proxy is described in general first. Then the special mechanisms it supports are described one at a time. After that, different uses of the proxy in a network are presented. Finally, the most important items left to add to the DNS proxy are discussed briefly.
Published: 1 August 2003
- D3.4.4: IPv4/IPv6 Multicast Interoperability
This describes how both IPv4 and IPv6 multicast can be deployed together in the same network, and also how IP hosts that do not support the same IP protocol, can still have multicast connectivity.
Published: 15 July 2003
- D3.4.3: IPv6 multicast address allocation study
This examines the issue of address allocation for multicast. The main need for such an allocation mechanism is collision avoidance. Two kinds of collision are considered: address collision, and address and port collision. This document also details the announcement mechanisms that can be used to let people know the existence of IPv6 multicast sessions (since the session announcement problem is closely related to the address allocation issue).
Published: 1 April 2003
- D3.4.1: IPv6 Intra-domain Multicast Service
This describes the IPv6 Intradomain multicast service used with 6NET. At this moment IPv6 Interdomain multicast, involving multiple Protocol-Independent Multicast (PIM) domains and thus multiple PIM Rendezvous Points (RPs) is not possible. Except when using Source Specific Multicast (SSM) since SSM does not require RPs. The French initiative M6Bone was used to deploy and gain experience with IPv6 Intradomain multicast.
Published: 31 March 2003
- D3.1.1: IPv6 Routing Plan for the 6NET Network
This describes the initial routing and naming setup of the 6NET core network. Chapter 1 describes the topology of the 6NET core network and the local loops to the NREN PoPs. Chapter 2 describes the number plan for the IPv6 prefix used in the 6NET project. The convention for the domain names of the equipment is also described. Chapter 3 describes the IGP routing setup and describes the setup and tuning parameters of IS-IS. Chapter 4 describes the EGP routing setup. The setup of both iBGP and eBGP is described. Finally, chapter 5 describes the initial network management setup regarding access, security and configuration templates.

WP4: Application and Service Support
- D4.1.3: Mobile IPv6 Handovers - Performance Analysis and Evaluation, 2nd Version
This deliverable provides a detailed analysis of handovers in Mobile IPv6 and highlights the factors that cause unacceptable delays to certain types of applications. We show how features such as router discovery, duplicate address detection and the registration of new addresses are too inefficient to allow for seamless handovers in Mobile IPv6.
Published: 21 June 2005
- D4.2.2: Framework for the Support of IPv6 Wireless LANs, 2nd Version Bis
This document aims to provide a framework for the support of wireless LANs (WLANs) in an IPv6-only environment. It is hoped that it will serve as an IPv6 WLAN design and implementation guide for readers that are unfamiliar with IPv6 and/or WLANs. The original focus for this document was to be on access control solutions but we have now expanded the scope to include all aspects of deploying IPv6 WLANs. While authentication and access control still remain a significant part of this deliverable, we also look at the issues in designing and implementing the WLAN together with IPv6 or MIPv6 specific issues that should be taken into consideration. We have also added a section on hardware and software availability. We also focus on IEEE 802.11 based WLANs since these are by far the most widely deployed and are certainly beginning to live up to the ‘wireless Ethernet’ tag. This is an update to the second version of the deliverable.

- D4.1.5: Multicast with mobile hosts: analysis and performance evaluation, 2nd Version
This aims to provide an analysis of the issues relative to IPv6 multicasting in the presence of IPv6 mobile nodes. This document is an extension of the version 1 of deliverable 4.1.5. This second version mainly focuses on the development and the deployment of a solution that allows a mobile node to receive and send multicast data via its Mobile IPv6 home agent. This solution, developed by ULP, is known as an MLD proxy. Such a service is publicly available via the 6NET network: an MLD proxy is indeed hosted at ULP and is publicly accessible.

- D4.3.1: First set of IPv6-enabled Dynamic VPNs running
VPN technology is widely deployed within IPv4, however the provisioning of dynamic VPN technology still remains very much an open research issue. This document outlines the investigation carried out into the issues surrounding the deployment of dynamic VPN technology within the specific context of IPv6. A number of VPN infrastructures aiming to provide dynamic VPNs have been analysed providing a status and a review of suitability. Consideration is also given to applications that may use an underlying dynamic VPN infrastructure, with specific focus on the context of conferencing environments. These have been supported by Active Networking, though other options are considered.

- D4.2.1: IPv6 Wireless LAN Access Issues
This investigates the major issues relating to IPv6 access over wireless LANs. Although 6NET is particularly concerned with IPv6, most of the issues in this report apply equally as well to the IPv4 case since the issues tend to be related to the properties of wireless LANs rather than the version of IP being deployed.
Published: 29 July 2002
- D4.1.1: Survey and evaluation of MIPv6 implementations
This provides a survey and evaluation of existing Mobile IPv6 (MIPv6) implementations. At the time of writing MIPv6 continues to be refined by the IETF mobileip working group and has not yet reached RFC status. MIPv6 is therefore not yet a standard and current implementations vary in both their completeness and to which draft version of the standard they are intended to support. This document provides a survey on how many host/router MIPv6 implementations are available and evaluates the MIPv6 features that are supported.

- D5.10: Report on using multipoint applications over SSM
In order to deploy multiparty applications using SSM, we not only need routers running SSM and hosts running MLDv2, but we must also consider some issues: We show that an architecture such as sas allows to keep a global session announcement a la SAP using SSM in the inter-domain. We evaluate ssmsdp and show that it is a viable architecture for discovering dynamic sources in a multiparty session using SSM. We also evaluate some mechanisms for congestion control in unidirectional multicast application. Finally we discuss some tools such as ssmping and dbeacon that can help users and administrators when running SSM applications.

- D5.7: Report on integration of SIP and IPv6
This reports on the integration of SIP and IPv6. It aims at trying to provide an assessment of the role SIP will presumably play in the IPv6 world and how far the integration of SIP in IPv6 related applications and protocols has taken place. The proliferation of communication services like IP telephony and advanced supplementary services, video conferencing, application data exchange, presence and instant messaging using SIP increases the need for public IP addresses that can only become available with the deployment of IPv6. The lack of IP addresses will become even more evident with the introduction of IP based communication in next generation 3GPP networks.
