Network Optimization of Ipv6 Networks Using Tunnel Header Compression
نویسندگان
چکیده
IPv6 is the successor internet protocol which will eventually replace IPv4. These two protocols are not compatible with each other and it will take time to migrate towards IPv6, until then both the protocols need to coexist for a long time. The main overhead involved with both the protocols is header length of 20 bytes in case of IPv4 and of 40 bytes in case of IPv6. This overhead will affect the network performance specially over tunneling mechanism where one header is encapsulated inside another. Tunneling is widely deployed over the network for various purposes like network security, mobility and transition mechanism. Header compression can be applied to compress the excess protocol headers to improve the performance of network. In this paper we want to use header compression in context of 6 to 4 tunneling transition. Using header compression over 6 to 4 tunnels would result in better response times reduced packet size and reduced packet losses. We want to simulate this algorithm using EXata Cyber 1.1 simulator.

Providing Efficient Secured Mobile IPv6 by SAG and Robust Header Compression
By providing ubiquitous Internet connectivity, wireless networks offer more convenient ways for users to surf the Internet. However, wireless networks encounter more technological challenges than wired networks, such as bandwidth, security problems, and handoff latency. Thus, this paper proposes new technologies to solve these problems. First, a Security Access Gateway (SAG) is proposed to solv...
متن کاملImplementation and Evaluation of the Enhanced Header Compression (IPHC) for 6LoWPAN
6LoWPAN defines how to carry IPv6 packets over IEEE 802.15.4 low power wireless or sensor networks. Limited bandwidth, memory and energy resources require a careful application of IPv6 in a LoWPAN. The IEEE 802.15.4 standard defines a maximum frame size of 127 bytes that decreases to 102 bytes considering the header overhead. A further reduction is due to the security, network and transport pro...

This document updates RFC 4944, "Transmission of IPv6 Packets over IEEE 802.15.4 Networks". This document specifies an IPv6 header compression format for IPv6 packet delivery in Low Power Wireless Personal Area Networks (6LoWPANs). The compression format relies on shared context to allow compression of arbitrary prefixes. How the information is maintained in that shared context is out of scope....

In 802.16 standards, PHS suppresses redundant parts of payload header in MAC service data unit. This paper proposes Label Switched Path-Payload Header Suppression (LSPPHS), in which an MPLS-enabled backbone route compresses packets over an MPLS LSP without compression or decompression cycles at each router. It has two main contributions for MPLS-IPv6 header compression. First, LSPPHS adds a new...
متن کاملOptimized Routing Information Exchange in Hybrid IPv4-IPv6 Network using OSPFV3 & EIGRPv6
IPv6 is the next generation internet protocol which is gradually replacing the IPv4. IPv6 offers larger address space, simpler header format, efficient routing, better QoS and built-in security mechanisms. The migration from IPv4 to IPv6 cannot be attained in a short span of time. The main issue is compatibility and interoperability between the two protocols. Therefore, both the protocols are l...
