ISP IPv6 Deployment Scenarios in Broadband Access Networks
RFC 4779, “ISP IPv6 Deployment Scenarios in Broadband Access Networks”, is an Informational document published in January 2007 by S. Asadullah, A. Ahmed, C. Popoviciu, P. Savola, J. Palet. The canonical text is published by the RFC Editor.
Abstract
This document provides a detailed description of IPv6 deployment and integration methods and scenarios in today\'s Service Provider (SP) Broadband (BB) networks in coexistence with deployed IPv4 services. Cable/HFC, BB Ethernet, xDSL, and WLAN are the main BB technologies that are currently deployed, and discussed in this document. The emerging Broadband Power Line Communications (PLC/BPL) access technology is also discussed for completeness. In this document we will discuss main components of IPv6 BB networks, their differences from IPv4 BB networks, and how IPv6 is deployed and integrated in each of these networks using tunneling mechanisms and native IPv6. This memo provides information for the Internet community.
