IPv6 Only
Brian Carpenter - Professor,
University of Auckland
Abstract:
Over
the last year there have been several experiments and a lot of
discussion about hosts and networks that are strictly IPv6 only. The
questions are: how will they fare in the real Internet, what
interworking technology is needed, and will it scale? The talk will
cover interworking technology, and some of the experience that has been
reported, including performance measurements made in the lab in
Auckland.
