by Emilio Madaio 14 Dec '10

14 Dec '10

Dear Colleagues, The IPv6 WG Chairs have decided that the proposal 2010-06 is ready for a 2 week Review Phase. Marco Hogewoning did not participate to the decision as he is a co-proposer. Following the feedback received, the draft documents for this proposal have been published. The impact analysis that was conducted for this proposal has also been published. You can find the full proposal at: http://ripe.net/ripe/policies/proposals/2010-06.html and the draft documents at: http://ripe.net/ripe/draft-documents/ripe-481-draft2010-06.html http://ripe.net/ripe/draft-documents/ripe-new-draft2010-06.html We encourage you to read the draft document text and send any comments to ipv6-wg(a)ripe.net before 27 December 2010.

The trouble with 6to4
by Mirjam Kuehne 06 Dec '10

Dear colleagues, We (thanks to Emile Aben) measured how broken 6to4 really is and found that it is pretty bad! Read more on RIPE Labs: http://labs.ripe.net/Members/emileaben/6to4-how-bad-is-it-really Kind Regards, Mirjam Kuehne RIPE NCC

New document available: RIPE-501 Requirements For IPv6 in ICT Equipment
by Marco Hogewoning 25 Nov '10

25 Nov '10

Dear community, A new ripe document, RIPE-501, has been published "Requirements For IPv6 in ICT Equipment". This document aims to be a guide of what to ask for exactly when IPv6 is a requirement in a tender or some contract and lists the various applicable RFCs for specific kinds of ICT equipment. The document is available on http://www.ripe.net/ripe/docs/ripe-501.html Please note that when using this document as a reference, as with any RIPE document, it might get superseded by new versions in the future. Many thanks to the authors and everybody who helped with proof reading, translation and feedback. Marco, David & Shane, co-chairs of the IPv6 working group

Last Call (20101117): Requirements For IPv6 in ICT Equipment
by David Kessens 24 Nov '10

24 Nov '10

Working Group, The "Requirements For IPv6 in ICT Equipment" draft seems to have reached a level of maturity that is enough to issue a formal Last Call to determine whether it is ready for publication as a RIPE document. The latest version is available here: http://www.ripe.net/ripe/draft-documents/ipv6-ict-requirements.html We would appreciate if you let us know by the end of November 17, 2010 if you have read the document and whether you support the publication of the document. As long as we get at least 8 statements of support and no significant issues are raised, we will ask the RIPE NCC to publish the document after fixing minor editorial issues (if found). David, Marco & Shane ---

Please for the process, as this is a last call, be very clear wether you are making comments about future versions or if you are objecting against publication of the current document. So far I consider this future improvements and we will go forward with publishing the current text as final. If anybody objects, please state this clearly and we will back out. The authors already agreed to do a second version together with some help from others, at the same time we have stakeholders who would like to get this draft label removed.

Re: [ipv6-wg] Last Call (20101117): Requirements For IPv6 in ICT Equipment
by Ivan Pepelnjak 23 Nov '10

Dear all, As I'm one of the original authors of this document (now nicely hidden behind the "Slovenian IPv6 working group" blob ;) and had a bit to do with MPLS in the past, please allow me to comment on the MPLS-related requirements. 6PE/6VPE ========= Unfortunately, the only way to combine IPv6 with MPLS features like MPLS-TE or FRR today (and in the next few years) is to run IPv4 MPLS core and 6PE/6VPE. The requirement to support 6PE/6VPE is thus MANDATORY, but has to be conditioned the same way mobile IPv6 is. I would therefore suggest that we add the following two bullets to the "Mandatory support" part of the "Router or Layer 3 switch" equipment: * If MPLS functionality (for example, BGP-free core, MPLS TE, MPLS FRR) is requested, the PE-routers and route reflectors MUST support "Connecting IPv6 Islands over IPv4 MPLS Using IPv6 Provider Edge Routers (6PE)" [RFC 4798] * If layer-3 VPN functionality is requested, the PE-routers and route reflectors MUST support "BGP-MPLS IP Virtual Private Network (VPN) Extension for IPv6 VPN" [RFC 4659] MT IS-IS & MPLS =============== There's another gotcha that we totally missed: MT for IS-IS (RFC 5120) should be mentioned and it should be MANDATORY in combination with MPLS (otherwise you might experience some weird symptoms if you decide to run some IPv6 natively). The "Router or Layer 3 switch" equipment section thus needs two more items: MANDATORY --------- * If MPLS Traffic Engineering is used in combination with IS-IS routing protocol, the equipment MUST support "M-ISIS: Multi Topology (MT) Routing in Intermediate System to Intermediate Systems (IS-ISs)" [RFC 5120] OPTIONAL -------- * When IS-IS routing protocol is requested, the equipment SHOULD support "M-ISIS: Multi Topology (MT) Routing in Intermediate System to Intermediate Systems (IS-ISs)" [RFC 5120] (this support is highly recommended) Best, Ivan Pepelnjak www.ioshints.info

New draft document available: Requirements For IPv6 in ICT Equipment
by Marco Hogewoning 17 Nov '10

17 Nov '10

(apologies for any duplicate emails) Dear Colleagues, Jan Zorz and Sander Steffan have prepared a document to serve as a guide what the requirements should be when asking for IPv6 in a tender or contract. It is our intention to publish this document as a RIPE document BCP so people can use this as an external reference. The draft version of this document is available at http://www.ripe.net/ripe/draft-documents/ipv6-ict-requirements.html Your comments and feedback can be sent to the IPv6 working group mailing-list on ipv6-wg(a)ripe.net.

Interactive Graph on RIPE Labs: Networks with IPv6 over Time
by Mirjam Kuehne 16 Nov '10

16 Nov '10

Dear colleagues, On RIPE Labs you can now find an interactive graph (provided by Emile Aben) that shows the percentage of networks (ASes) that announce one or more IPv6 prefixes in the global routing table. You can specify countries and compare the IPv6 deployment by region: https://labs.ripe.net/Members/emileaben/interesting-graph-networks-with-ipv… Kind Regards, Mirjam Kuehne RIPE NCC
