IPv6 Strategy
• A Program to company divisions Awareness
• Upgrade to IPv6 compatible devicesInfrastructure
• Build IPv6 network and transition planPlan
• Offer commercial serviceService

Network Status
Built a new IPv6 cloud
IPv6 upstream providers• Level3
First FBP in KSA to offer IPv6 connectivity
Trails with IPv6 over 3G network
Network Status
• For Service providers– We are Ready and serving.– Through IPv4 tunnel
• For End Users– In the near future
Transition Plan
• Phase I– Dual Stack network• Each user has IPv4 and IPv6 addresses
• Phase II– Users have IPv6 address only– Access IPv4 through Carrier Grade NAT (CGN)• NAT64• DNS64
Network Challenges
• IPv6 is a new network– Limited support on IPv6
– IPv4 Tier-1 providers ≠ IPv6 Teir-1 Providers
• Network Management– Some management devices doesn’t support IPv6– Little experience on managing IPv6 network
• Access network– Limited availability of IPv6 supported modems– Upgrading current modems
Transition Challenges
• No more IPv4 addresses– Dual Stack will not last for long time– The forecast of IPv4 depletion was 2012
• limited content on IPv6 network– Introduce IPv6 to IPv4 NATing (CGN)– Use Private IPv4 addresses
• End Users – due to additional costs associated with the upgrade.– Some users applications doesn’t support IPv6.
Recommendation• Content providers in KSA– Connect to IPv6 network
• Buy IPv6-ready devices.– Make sure your devices support the features that you need
• No NATing in IPv6– NAT is not a security protocol
• Train your team on IPv6– Attend MENOG workshops on IPv6
