(Continuation of Question 9/13) 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 will be increasing for the future networking including the
ubiquitous network.
During the 2005–2008 study period of ITU-T, Q.9/13 has defined IPv6-based NGN
which supports addressing, routing, protocols and services associated with IPv6
and been developing the related draft recommendations with alignment of the
reference model and functional architecture of NGN for analyzing impact of IPv6
to an NGN.
To cope with increasing end users/devices, we have to concentrate on more
practical solutions to realize IPv6-based NGN according to requirements and
functional capabilities developed by Q.9/13. The extension of IPv6 issues could
be necessary for supporting the future network environments.
Recommendations under responsibility of this Question include:
- Y.2051, General overview of IPv6-based NGN
- Y.2052, Framework of multi-homing in IPv6-based NGN
- Y.2053, Functional requirements for IPv6 migration in NGN
- Y.2054, Framework to support signalling for IPv6 based NGN
Question
Study items to be considered include, but are not limited to:
- What new Recommendations or enhancements to existing Recommendations are
needed to provide general overview of IPv6 based NGN, framework to support
signalling for IPv6 based NGN, framework of multi-homing in IPv6-based NGN, and
functional requirements for IPv4/IPv6 migration in NGN?
- What new Recommendations are needed to provide IP based ID/locator separation
in NGN?
- What new Recommendations are needed to provide protocol procedure and
mechanisms for identification/naming/DNS extension using IPv6?
- What new Recommendations are needed to provide host and network mobility,
dynamical management and auto-configuration in IPv6-based NGN environment?
- What new Recommendations are needed to provide QoS support in IPv6-based NGN
environment?
- What new Recommendations are needed to provide incremental deployment
scenarios and strategy towards IPv6-based NGN?
- What enhancements to existing Recommendations are required to provide energy
savings directly or indirectly in information and communication technologies (ICTs)
or in other industries? What enhancements to developing or new Recommendations
are required to provide such energy savings?
Tasks
Tasks include, but are not limited to:
- Development of new draft Recommendations on naming and addressing issues
for IPv6 based NGN. The expected time frame for completion is the middle of
2010.
- Development of new draft Recommendations on host and network mobility support
in IPv6 based NGN environments. The expected time frame for completion is the
middle of 2010.
- Development of new draft Recommendation on dynamical management and
auto-configuration in IPv6 based NGN environments. The expected time frame for
completion is the middle of 2009.
- Development of new draft Recommendation on QoS support in IPv6-based NGN
environments. The expected time frame for completion is the middle of 2010.
- Development of new draft Recommendation on incremental deployment scenarios
and strategy towards IPv6 based NGN. The expected time frame for completion is
the middle of 2009.
Relationships
Close cooperation with other ITU-T study groups (for services and
applications) and other organizations must take place.
