LACNIC ? What is it ?
• LACNIC is the network address registry for La*n America and the Caribbean • We assign IPv6 (and s*ll some IPv4 J ) to organiza*ons within our service area
IPv6 from the End-‐User Point of View
• You hear a lot that “there is just 2%, 3% or perhaps 5% of IPv6 traffic on the Internet” – Whether this is a lot or not is debatable
• But, if you are a network operator, the actual ques*on you should ask yourself is “how much IPv6 traffic will MY network have if I enable IPv6 for my users?”
IPv6 from the End-‐User Point of View
• Office network – mostly email, web searching, reading and, yes, Facebook – But mostly no cat videos – 47 % traffic is currently IPv6
• LACNIC Conference Networks – … whatever you guys are doing here … – 23% (Port-‐Au-‐Prince, 2012), 36% (Montevideo, 2012), 34% (Medellin, 2013), XX%? (San*ago, 2014)
IPv6 from the End-‐User Point of View
• Why is this happening ? – The largest content providers are IPv6-‐enabled, thanks to World IPv6 Launch Day – Web browsers have become very good at handling dual-‐stack scenarios • Failover between stacks quickly • Giving IPv6 some headstart
IPv6 from the End-‐User Point of View
• Why is this important ? – ISPs will have to spend money in handling IPv4 exhaus*on • If they want to grow their user base, that is
– Public IPv4 address sharing (CGN) is expensive and has many, many problems – If ISPs enable IPv6 for their users, they may have up to 40% less traffic in your CGN *today* • This is money ISPs are saving!
