Well everything is standardized I mean IPv6 is well defined by RFC. What most
carriers are doing is deploying in a dual stack mode. Big parts of the network
are converted although your right there’s a lot to go. All your major backbone
providers have been exchanging V6 for years now, the cell carriers are well
underway converting as well. I believe Verizon and T-Mobile are fully
converted and if we could only get Verizon to switch over FIOS to native V6
there whole network would be converted. (DSL and business are already V6
compliant)
If you enable V6 you’d be surprised how much that’s used now over V4.
Most consumers will convert over and never even know. Comcast users have had
V6 for 5 years or so now and most don’t know. It just happens with a router
update as far as the consumer is concerned and most operating systems are ready
to accept V6 when enabled. Really there’s no need for the end consumer to know
or care as everything still works the same way. The average user doesn’t care
if their DNS is resolved by 8.8.8.8 or 2001:4860:4860::8888 just as long as it
works.;). It will take years to fully convert and probably decades before V4
can be shut down but progress is definitely accelerating especially now that V4
space is exhausted. That’s the biggest motivator, we’re out of V4 space.> On May 12, 2017, at 12:32 PM, Daniel C <topdog2...@gmail.com> wrote: > > I think the security implementation will take a while to get used to, > especially when you have consumers who may not understand how it fully works > completely. > Regardless of what we are called, (System administrator, network > administrator, Network engineer), we all have our duties, which are, to keep > our clients and business is safe. > Speaking from experience on my behalf, I can certainly see why my clients are > hesitant to take to the new IP implementation, but I also see the benefits as > well. > I honestly hope though, that throughout the years the new IP implementation > will become standardized. > It would be nice if all of the Internet providers would have a conference, to > talk about the IP implementation, and how it would greatly reduce security > risks, etc. This way, the implementation could be adopted faster.
