Security Flaws Common in IPV4/IPV6 & Security Issues in IPV6: A Study
نویسندگان
چکیده
The current generation of the Internet is based on IPV4 protocol.IPV4 has been a great success on that time but due to less address space and lack of security it does not fulfil the requirement of the exponential growth of the internet. Because of limited address space and lack of security IPV4 is replaced by IPV6, proposed by the network working group of the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) which provides various improvements over IPV4 like simplicity, large address space, auto-configuration, simple routing header, flow label capabilities, security and so on. This Paper identifies flaws common in IPV4/IPV6 and security issues in IPV6.

Status of this Memo IPv6 Transition/Co-existence Security Considerations
The transition from a pure IPv4 network to a network where IPv4 and IPv6 coexist brings a number of extra security considerations that need to be taken into account when deploying IPv6 and operating the dual-protocol network and the associated transition mechanisms. This document attempts to give an overview of the various issues grouped into three categories: o issues due to the IPv6 protocol ...
متن کاملSecurity aspects in IPv6 networks - implementation and testing
IPv6 protocol, which should replace the actual IPv4 protocol, brings many new possibilities and improvements considering simplicity, routing speed, quality of service and security. In comparison to IPv4, IPv6 improves mechanisms for assuring a secure and confidential transfer of information. Despite these improvements, network security remains a very important issue since there are some securit...
متن کاملSecurity Issues in Next Generation IP and Migration Networks
As networks are mushrooming, the growth and development of IPv6 is gaining more importance. The wide scale deployment of this protocol into operational networks raises certain issues with security being one of the most compelling ones. The next generation internet protocol (IPng) introduces vulnerabilities in addition to those inherent in IPv4. While the existing security infrastructure like IP...
متن کاملStudy on High Performance IPv4/IPv6 Transition and Access Service
Transition to IPv6 has been recognized as the trend of future Internet. Since a huge amount of resources have been invested on current IPv4-based Internet, how to smoothly transit the Internet from IPv4 to IPv6 is a very important research topic. This paper surveys the state of the art in IPv6 transition, summarizes and compares different IPv6 transition mechanisms and scenarios, discusses the ...
متن کاملA Study on the Connectivity of IPv6 to IPv4 Domains and Its Security Issues
The current Internet protocol, version 4, known as IPv4, poses several problems such as impending exhaustion of its address space, configuration and complexities due to rapid growth of the Internet and emerging new technologies. As a result, IETF developed the next generation IP, called IPv6, to not only eliminate the shortcomings of IPV4 but also deliver new features and services. Transition t...
