Session 2: Technical issues of IPv6
migration
Session Chair: Detlef Eckert, Advisor, European Commission (EC) [ BIOGRAPHY ]
Objectives: This session will address current
technical debates and key questions to enable
IPv4-IPv6 migration. The proposed technical
scenarios expected in migrating to IPv6 will be
presented, including the technical impediments, the
threats and the opportunities. It will also analyse
how ITU can use its strength as a unique
international SDO and global dialogue platform to
facilitate the process of NGN deployment in relation
with IPv4-Ipv6 migration. In addition, techniques
used to stretch the usage of IPv4, e.g. Network
Address Translation Protocol (NAT), will be
analyzed. This session will see inputs from all
relevant ITU Sectors.

Session 3: Economic dimension of
IPv6 adoption. What is at stake?
Session Chair: Detlef Eckert, Advisor, European Commission (EC) [ BIOGRAPHY ]
Objectives: This session will introduce
contributions to ITU-T Study Group 2 (C109 and
report from SG2 CG on IPv6) and Study Group 3 (C30,
C30-add.1, C50, C57) as well as other related
documents submitted to this workshop.

Session 4: Economic, tariff and accounting issues
related to IP address allocation
Session Chair: Nabil Kisrawi, Permanent
representative to ITU, S.T.E. (Syria); Chairman of
the Arab Standardization Group
Objectives: This session will try to answer to the
questions raised by contribution 30 and its Addendum
to ITU-T Study Group 3.
In particular:
- What economic or tariff incentives could be
put in place in order to make sure that IPv4
addresses allocated by the RIRs are used
efficiently, when they are not any longer used;
that they are given back to the global
community; and are not hoarded?
- What are the direct and indirect costs
related to fraud, spam, etc. that is facilitated
because of NATing and other practices currently
used to conserve IPv4 addresses, because those
practices make it more difficult to trace the
origin of particular packets or E-Mail messages?
- What are the costs of migration to IPv6, in
particular for developing countries, for example
for:
- Capacity building
- New equipment (routers, etc.)
- Configuration (e.g. maintenance of
dual-stacks, tunnelling, etc.)
- What, if any, is the network externalities
involved in the migration from IPv4 to IPv6?
- What would be the economic or tariff effects
if a secondary market is created for IPv4
addresses (that is, allowing current holders of
IPv4 addresses to sell them to other
organizations)?
- What would be the impact — in particular for
developing countries, taking into account that
tariffs should be cost-oriented — of the growing
scarcity of IPv4 addresses and of a), b) and c)
above on:
- Settlement rates for voice traffic that is
carried over IP networks at the wholesale
(backbone) level.
- International Internet connectivity (IIC)
(ITU-T Recommendation D.50)
- Termination rates for IP telephony
- Next generation networks (NGN)
- ITU role in this domain, enhancing international cooperation

Session 4 (continued) : Economic, tariff and
accounting issues related to IP address allocation
Session Chair: Nabil Kisrawi, Permanent
representative to ITU, S.T.E. (Syria); Chairman of
the Arab Standardization Group
Objectives: This session will continue the
work initiated in the morning in answering the
questions raised by contribution 30 and its Addendum
to ITU-T Study Group 3.

12:30 − 14:00 |

Session 5: Conclusions and meeting wrap-up,
including development and enhanced cooperation
issues.
Session Chair: Nabil Kisrawi, Permanent
representative to ITU, S.T.E. (Syria); Chairman of
the Arab Standardization Group
Objectives: This session will summarize the discussions and answers to the questions discussed in previous sessions, with the aim of identifying achievable and concrete follow-up actions.
This session will also try to highlight the
necessary requirements to properly assist developing
countries in the migration to IPv6 as well as
international cooperation with other relevant
bodies. |
