چکیده

Status of This Memo This memo provides information for the Internet community. It does not specify an Internet standard of any kind. Distribution of this memo is unlimited. Abstract This document describes a procedure that can be used to renumber a network from one prefix to another. It uses IPv6's intrinsic ability to assign multiple addresses to a network interface to provide continuity of network service through a "make-before-break" transition, as well as addresses naming and configuration management issues. It also uses other IPv6 features to minimize the effort and time required to complete the transition from the old prefix to the new prefix.

Preparing network configurations for IPv6 renumbering

The difficulty of renumbering a network – i.e., adding and removing an IP prefix due to a provider change or a network merging – is a real issue for most network administrators. It is even considered by a lot of people as a bottleneck issue in adopting Provider Aggregatable addressing for IPv6. In this paper, we propose a set of macros that can be used in configuration files to permit network a...

Patents on IPv6-Related Technologies

IPv6 is an Internet Layer protocol for packet-switched networks providing endto-end datagram transmission across multiple domains. IPv6 was formally described for the first time in the Request for Comments (RFC) 2460, published in December 1998. In addition to offering a larger addressing space, IPv6 also defines some features not present in the previous version of the protocol (IPv4). For exam...

Network Working Group Bgp-mpls Ip Virtual Private Network (vpn) Extension for Ipv6 Vpn Bgp-mpls Ip Vpn Extension for Ipv6 Vpn

This document describes a method by which a Service Provider may use its packet-switched backbone to provide Virtual Private Network (VPN) services for its IPv6 customers. This method reuses, and extends where necessary, the "BGP/MPLS IP VPN" method for support of IPv6. In BGP/MPLS IP VPN, "Multiprotocol BGP" is used for distributing IPv4 VPN routes over the service provider backbone, and MPLS ...

IPv6 Initiatives Within the European National Research and Education Networks (NRENs)

In this paper we present an overview of the IPv6 activities of European National Research and Education Networks, both within the individual national programmes and in joint studies undertaken within the GÉANT Task Force for Next Generation Networks working group. The group has an international testbed activity (GTPv6) under which many IPv6 aspects have been studied, including routing, interope...
