Question 9/13 - Impact of IPv6 to an NGN
(New Question)
  1. Motivation

    The IPv6 is one of the useful delivery protocols for the future fixed and wireless/mobile network environments. From service and application aspects, the necessity of IPv6 protocol will be increasing for the coming NGN world. The IPv6 protocol should be accommodated with an alignment of the reference model and functional architecture of NGN.


  2. Question

    Study items to be considered include, but are not limited to:

    • IPv6 protocol and its mechanisms for the U-plane, C-plane and M-plane flows in alignment with the functional architecture and reference model of NGN
    • IPv6 protocol architectures and functional blocks for possible integration of fixed and wireless/mobile network in NGN
    • Impact of possible use of IPV4 and IPV6 in transitional phases of NGN.


  3. Tasks

    Tasks include but are not limited to:

    • New draft Recommendations on the use of IPv6 protocol mechanism in NGN. The expected time frame for completion is the middle of 2006.
    • New draft Recommendations on impact of possible use of IPV4 and IPV6 in transitional phases of NGN. The expected time frame for completion is the middle of 2006.


  4. Relationships

    Recommendations: Y-series
