RIPE Community Resolution on IPv4 Depletion and Deployment of IPv6
by JORDI PALET MARTINEZ 25 Oct '07

25 Oct '07

I don't think my comment was well understood today in the session, so I drafted how I think the community resolution should look. See below. English nits should be reviewed, but the main idea is that we start with a short kind of intro of the situation (those points from the original 5 that are generic), staying focus, keeping it short, but at the same time help each "kind of reader" to identify what is the paragraph that is *more* relevant to him. I also added a specific action for policy makers/regulators and one for users. I hope that, as very few people (in the list and session) has provided input on this, we are allowed to participate in the final drafting of the document. Not being a big group is possible to do it, as otherwise, will not really be a community resolution. Regards, Jordi At current allocation rates, the remaining pool of unallocated IPv4 address space is likely to be allocated within the next two to four years. Although the Internet will continue to function as normal after this point, this event will have a significant influence on future network operations as well as IP address management and allocation policies. Therefore we recognise that the widespread deployment of IPv6 will be essential to sustain future growth of the Internet. We recognise that the responsibility for creating policies related to the management of critical Internet resources in the RIPE NCC service region rests with the RIPE community and the proven success of the RIPE Policy Development Process (PDP). In recognition of this responsibility, we commit to continue development of effective policies for the responsible management of IPv4 and IPv6 address space. We agree that this situation requires a committed effort from network operators, ISPs and the RIPE community. We urge that the widespread deployment of IPv6 be made a high priority. In addition to that, other sectors must take their own measures in order to success on this mission: 1) Network operators and Internet Service Providers (ISPs) are called to the urgent deployment of IPv6 across their networks as soon as possible. This deployment must include providing IPv6 access to End Users and ensuring services are accessible by IPv6. 2) Vendors (hardware and software) are called to the urgent support of IPv6 support in their products, to make it possible for network operators and Internet Service Providers to provide these services. 3) Regulators and policy makers are called to make sure the relevance of the IPv6 support is considered in all their decisions, including as an immediate condition for public procurements. 4) Users must ensure, when acquiring new services, hardware or software, that it supports IPv6 (natively or by means of transition mechanisms). ********************************************** The IPv6 Portal: http://www.ipv6tf.org Bye 6Bone.

DRAFT: RIPE Community Resolution on IPv4 Depletion and Deployment of IPv6
by Gert Doering 24 Oct '07

24 Oct '07

Hello Address Policy Working Group, IPv6 Working Group, as announced yesterday on the APWG list, here's the first draft of the "we are going to tell the world what the RIPE community recommends regarding the end of IPv4 / advent of IPv6". The text has been drafted by the RIPE NCC, but the actual recommendation needs to come from "the community", so change whatever you think needs changing. Face-to-face discussion will take place in the APWG and IPv6 WG meeting on Thursday, October 25th. (Short discussion in APWG early morning, time to think about it during the day, final decision in the IPv6 WG meeting on Thursday afternoon). ----------------------- snip ----------------------- DRAFT - RIPE Community Resolution on IPv4 Depletion and Deployment of IPv6 RIPE 55: 22 - 26 October 2007 The RIPE community resolves as follows: 1) At current allocation rates, the remaining pool of unallocated IPv4 address space is likely to be allocated within the next two to four years. Although the Internet will continue to function as normal after this point this event will have a significant influence on future network operations as well as IP address management and allocation policies. Therefore we recognise that the widespread deployment of IPv6 will be essential to sustain future growth of the Internet. 2) We urge network operators and Internet Service Providers (ISPs) to deploy IPv6 across their networks as soon as possible. This deployment must include providing IPv6 access to End Users and ensuring services are accessible by IPv6. 3) We recognise that the responsibility for creating policies related to the management of critical Internet resources in the RIPE NCC service region rests with the RIPE community and the proven success of the RIPE Policy Development Process (PDP).

Agenda for ipv6 wg RIPE55
by David Kessens 19 Oct '07

19 Oct '07

During next RIPE meeting, our working group is scheduled to meet: Thu, Oct 25, 16:00 - 17:30 in Grand Ballroom, Hotel Krasnapolsky, Amsterdam The agenda became quite packed due to the last minute agenda item of a proposed community statement regarding the depletion of ipv4 and the deployment of ipv6. Note that this proposal will be discussed first in the APWG session in the early thursday morning session. I have included a link to the actual proposal in the agenda and you might want to take a look at it and the discussion that followed on the list after the first posting of the draft. Rather than cutting the discussion short, we might let the meeting run past the normal closing time of 17:30 but to no later than 18:00 (I usually ask for the afternoon slot so that we have a bit more flexibility with our time). See you all in Amsterdam, David Kessens --- Agenda for the IPv6 Working Group Meeting RIPE55 When: Thu, Oct 25, 16:00 - 17:30 Where: Grand Ballroom, Hotel Krasnapolsky, Amsterdam A.

However, to make this a successful meeting we will actually have to get more items on the agenda than just the standard topics. Please let me know if you have any suggestions for issues that need to be discussed. Note that we don't have a requirement for powerpoint or duration of your presentation: the important thing is that the issue to be discussed is relevant for the deployment of ipv6 in the RIPE service region.

Jordi, I have received the following comments on my request to provide input whether people believe that your "IPv6 news - weekly summary" is something that the working group participants would like to receive on the mailing list: Prefer not to receive your summary: Daniel Roesen Geoff Huston Marc Blanchet Roger Jorgensen Bernhard Schmidt Dominik Bay Gert Doering Edward Lewis (after deadline) Would like to receive your summary: Aleksi Suhonen Neutral: Mohsen Souissi Other comments: Philip Smith would consider your message acceptable if the MessageID was the same for all lists that you post the summary to I believe the results are quite clear and I would like to ask you to stop posting your weekly messages to the mailing list. As a courtesy to you and the people who did have an interest in your mails, feel free to post one more message where people can find the weekly summary on their own and/or contains the information so that people can subscribe on their own to a mailing list that you manage to receive your summary.

I for one was close to asking Jordi to immediately cease posting as they are readily available from other mailing list or at his website (I personally receive now 4 unwanted copies of his mail). However, I can see that other people might have a different opinion. Please send your comments directly to me by Sunday 8/26, without CC'ing the list as their is no need to make this a lengthy discussion. I will post a summary to the list (but I will as a matter of principle mention your name in the summary).

6to4 and Teredo relay deployment
by JORDI PALET MARTINEZ 29 Jun '07

29 Jun '07

Some weeks ago I started to work in documenting how to setup 6to4 and Teredo relays/servers in several platforms for the afripv6-discuss mailing list. There are many 6to4 relays already, but it becomes even more important to have them where the bandwidth is more expensive, because it avoids traffic going thru upstream links. The first message on this is here: https://lists.afrinic.net/pipermail/afripv6-discuss/2007/000061.html More information about 6to4 also available at: http://www.ipv6tf.org/index.php?page=using/connectivity/6to4 Similarly for Teredo: https://lists.afrinic.net/pipermail/afripv6-discuss/2007/000080.html And more info about Teredo at: http://www.ipv6tf.org/index.php?page=using/connectivity/teredo Regards, Jordi ********************************************** The IPv6 Portal: http://www.ipv6tf.org Bye 6Bone.
