Operating System Response to Router Advertisement Packet in IPv6.

With growth of internet IPv4 address will run out soon. So the need of new IP protocol is indispensable. IPv6 with 128-bit address space is developed and maintain the support of IPv4 protocols with some upgrades such as BGP, OSPF and ICMP. ICMP protocol used for error reporting, neighbor discovering and other functions for diagnosis, ICMP version 6 has new types of packets to perform function similar to address resolution protocol ARP called Neighbor Discovery Protocol NDP. NDP is responsible for address auto configuration of nodes and neighbor discovery. It define new packets for the purposes of router solicitation, router advertisement and others discovery functions

Ce document présente succinctement les motivations pour l'utilisation d'IPv6 dans les grilles. Une analyse des opérations nécessaires pour son déploiement dans la plateforme Grid5000 est ensuite présentée et détaillée

Implementation of IPv6

On 14 September 2012 last block of IPv4 has been allocated from the Regional Internet Register (RIR) across the Europe, Middle East and Asia. In addition, the demand of further addresses, security and efficient routing across Internet has been increasing every day. Hence, to provide the abundant IP addresses and also to overcome the shortcoming of IPv4, IETF developed a new protocol IPv6. IPv6 overcome the limitations of IPv4 and integrate advance feature. These advanced improvements include larger address space, more efficient addressing and routing, auto-configuration, security, and QOS. The main objective of this project was to implement IPv6 network in Cisco laboratory of Rovaniemi University of Applied Sciences (RAMK). Cisco 2800 and 1700 Series routers, 3500 series Cisco Catalyst Switches, Microsoft Server 2012, Windows 7, Windows 8 and finally Mac OS X were used during implementation process. This project covers the implementation of IPv6, DHCPv6, DNS, Routing Protocols EIGRP, and Security. The goal of the project was to implement IPv6 to existing IPv4 network without affecting the running services. Furthermore, this project was implementation in Local Area Network (LAN) only

Scenarios Designed for the Verification of Mobile IPv6 Enabling Technologies

Conveying the innovations of an infrastructural based technology such as Mobile IPv6 is not easy. The identification of an application scenario can be a beneficial way to guide the development of Mobile IPv6 enabling technologies and to assist the real life deployment of Mobile IPv6. Well defined scenarios can also become an important part of the final system integration and test bed deployment. This paper will first describe additional functional components for Mobile IPv6, particularly the ones that have been successfully integrated, i.e. MIPv6 bootstrapping based on EAP (with and without MIPv6 DHCPv6 extensions and DNS/IKEv2), AAA for MIPv6 bootstrapping, and HA load sharing. We will then highlight a methodology used in identifying an application scenario chosen to demonstrate the operational mobility service. We will briefly review the state of the art in the domain and seventeen scenarios in the “Mobile and Wireless Systems and Platforms beyond 3G” area. We will then show the process of defining one specific demonstrable scenario, which adequately verifies the technical and business requirements for the deployment of a Mobile IPv6 service

Efficient and scalable IPv6 communication functions for wireless outdour lighting networks

Outdoor lighting today is becoming increasingly network-connected. The rapid development in wireless communication technologies makes this progress faster and competitive. Philips Research and Philips Lighting are part of the leading forces in exploration and development of a wide spectrum of low-maintenance, high-quality outdoor/indoor lighting systems that are state of the art. City Touch is a proprietary outdoor lighting connectivity system of Philips Lighting, which is based on a client-server architecture. In an outdoor lighting context, an embedded computer (Node) is installed on a light pole and is connected to different sensors to provide connectivity for the luminaires. Thus, connectivity of luminaires generally refers to the computer network of Nodes. In this report, I present a survey of mechanisms, protocols and technologies that are needed for bootstrapping of wireless Nodes to an IPv6 based personal area network (PAN). The survey indicates that there is no single off-the-shelf product or standard that meets all the requirements of Philips research for its future solution. Hence, I designed a thorough bootstrapping protocol that is custom tailored to Philips 's POLAR architecture. The design brings a solution from pre-deployment configuration to the point where a new Node successfully becomes a part of a wireless network. The design is partially demonstrated with two software implementations. Finally I provide recommendations for future work based on my research
