Hi Geert Jan,

From what i know (which is not everything) is that implementing Ipv6 on mobile 
networks in most cases is a relatively simple action.
But depending on the GGSN/PGW/UPF equipment if that’s not the case it can be a 
traumatic costly nightmare.

From the country I live in, 2/3 mobile operators have implemented v6 on their 
mobile network (Finland)

In our case the mobile customer gets Ipv6 , and a CGN IPv4 address.

I hope this helps to answer your question.

Rgds,

Ray

statistics dropped for the, Netherlands?)

Hi,

May I ask a different, but related question:

While IPv6 migration on classic networks (server farms, internet-at-home
connections) is ongoing (and has been ongoing for many, many years,
alas), we don't seem to make any progress with mobile data networks.

My phone shows test-ipv6.com 10/10 when connected to my home wifi, when
I connect via my mobile provider, I only get IPv4/CGN.
For me, this has been the case for quite a while, with multiple providers.

"Mobile" is important for IPv6 migration. Without IPv6 accessibility
from mobile networks, the IPv6 migration unfortunately is only
engineering overhead because it will never lead to an actual migration.

So, what is the opinion of the working group on this one?

I did ask the Dutch regulator and they didn't seem to be interested at
all in making the migration work. That worries me.

Are things different in other countries? Examples we can point to?

Geert Jan
