IPV6 DEPLOYMENT PERSPECTIVE BY JOHN SPENCE, VP OF IP SERVICES, NEPHOS6
Copyright © Nephos6, Inc 2011
IPv6 Implementa-on is Not Rocket Science
• Advance planning is an advantage • Not being under duress is an advantage • Expect it to be a big, wide-‐ranging project • Expect it to take awhile • Look at it as an opportunity to advance your IT capability

IPv6 Standards Well Advanced
• Many standards, many revisions, more coming, breadth and depth covered
• Upshot: most everything you need is standardized

IPv6 Support in Products Good and Improving
• Many products IPv6 ready, robust, or robust features on roadmaps
• Note “ready” is a difficult term to pin down • Upshot: most everything you want to implement is
produc-on-‐ready or will be soon

• Middle: broadband and mobile • Soon: enterprises and cloud
