Kazu Yamamoto, IIJ Presentation [pdf] Action ipv6-16-001: IPv6 technical SIG draft charter to be discussed on the ipv6 mailing list. Update: closed. The Chair explained that a new charter had been proposed without objection. The new charter is: To share information on IPv6 deployment around the region and to review technical and engineering issues relating to IPv6. Tim Jones, APNIC This presentation provided statistics of the total IANA IPv6 allocations, a comparison of the allocations made by the RIRs, a breakdown of APNIC allocations, a review of the IPv6 routing table, and IPv6 registration statistics. The presenter noted that RIPE NCC has made over half the total IPv6 allocations and APNIC has made approximately one quarter of the total IPv6 allocations. So far 14 economies have received allocations from APNIC. Japan has received more than half the total allocations in this region. Korea, Taiwan, and China have also received large amounts of address space. Fifty of the 67 /35 allocations made by APNIC have upgraded to /32. One /30 has been allocated. To date, APNIC has received two applications for experimental IPv6 allocations; however, in both cases, consultation with the applicants resulted in regular /32 allocations being made. It was noted that anyone who received a /64 IXP assignment under the old policy is eligible to have that upgraded to a /48, subject to return of the original assignment. The IPv6 routing table shows that /32 is by far the most frequently routed prefix. Questions and discussion Action items Billy MH Cheon, KRNIC This presentation discussed KRNIC's .kr DNS deployment plan. KRNIC plans to establish an IPv6 .kr DNS query service, dual IPv4 and IPv6 network for .kr DNS, and an IPv6 .kr DNS trial service connecting with the KOREAv6 network. The presenter noted the cooperation between departments inside KRNIC for systematic implementation of this plan. KRNIC also plans to upgrade the domain registration system for IPv6 nameserver registration and to add an IPv6 search function in Whois. The trial service will be launched in cooperation with other organisations. The presenter also reviewed the proposed timeline for the deployment plan. Questions and discussion Action items Kenichi Kanayama, Intec NetCore This presentation discussed an approach for IPv6 deployment metrics. The Internet Association of Japan has a plan to investigate how to measure the degree of IPv6 deployment in Japan. Metrics will be developed to measure the scale of the IPv6 Internet, deployment ratio, stability, and characteristics and tendency of IPv6 traffic. The presenter reviewed the details of how each of these issues will be measured. In particular, he reviewed how .JP DNS records would be used to provide statistics on the amount of IPv6 service and support. The presenter displayed some data that has been compiled already. He noted that so far, about five to ten percent of online services in .JP appear to provide IPv6 support. Questions and discussion Action items Meeting closed: 12:00 pm Minuted by: Gerard Ross |
