Transcript of ARM 7: IPv6 deployment - where are we now?
IPv6 deployment update: Where are we now? APNIC Regional Meeting 7 9 March 2015, Bangkok, Thailand Anna Mulingbayan
Agenda
• IPv4 address exhaustion – current status • IPv6 deployment status in the APNIC region • Growth path of the Internet: IPv6 and mobile
networks • APNIC’s engagement with IPv6 deployment • Conclusion

IPv4 address exhaustion: current status
• IPv4 address exhaustion at five RIRs (% of /8s) – APNIC
• Reached the final /8 IPv4 address block on 19 Apr 2011 • Remaining free IPv4 address pool: about 75%
– RIPE NCC • Reached the final /8 IPv4 address block on 14 Sep 2012 • Remaining free IPv4 address pool: about 95%
– LACNIC • Reached the final /10 IPv4 address block on 10 Jun 2014 • Reaming free IPv4 address pool: about 20%
– ARIN • Currently allocating from the final /8 IPv4 address block • Remaining free IPv4 address pool: about 35% • Projected to exhaust all free pool around May 2015
– AfriNIC • Remaining free IPv4 address pool: about 2.6 (/8s)

How IPv6 deployment is going?
This varies around the world in terms of… – Address distribution
• Have the networks got addresses? – Routing deployment
• Do they show in the routing table? – Content readiness on IPv6 – User capability
• Can end-users use IPv6 and access content?

Observation • IPv6 deployment is increasing steadily
– But varies among regions, economies, and individual ASNs – Not happening simultaneously – Some economies and ASNs have been very active in terms of IPv6
deployment • Particularly some mobile network operators and cable TV operators • Once they enable IPv6 in their network and handsets, their end user
readiness grows VERY rapidly
• Where are you now in terms of IPv6 deployment?

http://newsroom.cisco.com/release/1197391/, http://www.internetworldstats.com/stats3.htm#asia, http://www.internetworldstats.com/emarketing.html
2.9 billion Internet users
World population 6.2 billion
3.3 billion not connected 1.33 billion in Asia
+30 % from 2013
Two Mobile Revolutions… • 1990s: mobile voice explosion
– Few wires available (copper) – New wireless technology (analogue mobile) – New consumer technology (cellphones) – Pent up demand (global telephony)
• 2010s: mobile broadband explosion – Few wires available (copper/fibre) – New wireless technology (3G/4G) – New consumer technology (smart phones) – Pent up demand (global Internet)
29
IPv6 in mobile networks
• 3G+ and 4G (LTE, TD-LTE): Services on voice, messaging and data are converging on IP-based services
• Rapidly increasing global 3G+ and 4G deployment – Some mobile network operators already deployed IPv6

Verizon T-Mobile
Conclusion: IPv6 in mobile networks • The business competency of mobile network operators:
– Shifting from being a traditional voice and messaging provider to mobile broadband service provider to ISP
– Services on voice, messaging and data are converging on IP based services
– Rapidly increasing LTE deployment in the region
• Decision makers’ (mobile network operators) view – Ready to move to Voice over LTE? – Mobile cloud computing on top of the LTE network? – What are key building blocks for all-IP strategy?
• IP everywhere – here and now – IPv4 or IPv6? The choice is yours
