On 25th August 2014, at the office of the Ministry of Information and Communications – 18 Nguyen Du, Hanoi, Vietnam Internet Network Information Center (VNNIC) organized the event “Celebration of the 1 million Vietnamese international domain names”. This milestone brought Vietnam to become the country with the largest number of IDNs, which re�ected the potential development of Vietnamese international domain name in the market, as well as preserving national cultural identity, a new stage of development of the Internet of Vietnam.
1 million Vietnamese IDN milestone also marked the integration of Vietnam into the global Internet, together with preserving Vietnamese culture and content in the Internet.
VNNIC launches domain name management system in accordance with international EPP standard
On 11th October 2014, VNNIC officially replaced the cur rent domain name management system (DMS) with the Shared Registry System (SRS), using EPP (Extensible Provisioning Protocol). The transition to the new management system with advanced technologies will improve the management capacity and promote “.vn” domain name in both domestic and oversea markets. This new system helps VNNIC and “.vn” registrars, both domestic and foreign, to minimize manual management operations and signi�cantly shortens the time to process requirements from registrants. This new system is really important as enhancing the competitiveness of the “.vn” domain name and promoting the “.vn” domain name in the future.
The National IPv6 Action Plan amended
On 20th October 2014, the Minister of Information and Communications signed Decision No. 1509/QD-BTTTT on amending Decision No. 433/QD-BTTTT on 29th March 2011 providing the National IPv6 Action Plan.
After 3 years of execution, the Action Plan has proved to signi�cantly improve the public awareness of IPv6 deployment in Vietnam, with major achievements by Vietnamese Internet service providers (ISPs). However, there are still several drawbacks including the low IPv6 traffic and lack of IPv6 commercial services. To overcome this situation, the Vietnam IPv6 Task Force (VNIPv6TF) recognized the need to review and admend the national action plans on IPv6, by adding tasks and contents for new participants of the IPv6 plan such as online newspaper, information portals, social networks, “.vn” domain registrars, international domain name registrars in Vietnam, software companies, and network equipment providers.

In comparison with other ccTLDs in the region, “.vn” still kept a quite steady growth with an 1.1% increase in both Aug and Sep 2014, while it can be seen from the below table that some other ccTLDs witnessed a fall in the growth rate, or even negative development. Until Oct 2014, the overall growth rate of “.vn” reached 9.4%, and was expected to reach 13% at the end of 2014. After the introduction of new gTLDs into the market, the competition from those was signi�cantly intense, with such a 139.8% growth rate from May to Aug 2014, while ccTLDs only rose by 1,7% (Domain Name Stat Report - CENTR, Sep 2014).

Under the in�uence of the global economic crisis, since 2013, the growth rate of “.vn” new registration has been lower than before. In 2014, the development of “.vn” witnessed both of the hardship of economy and the competition of the new gTLDs. Under the circumstance, VNNIC and the Registrars continued the promotional activities for “.vn” ccTLD, such as the series of conference with the theme of “Protecting Vietnamese trademark and brandname with “.vn” ccTLD”, strengthening the relationship with customers, and improving the service quality for customers. Consequently, “.vn” has still reached some achievements during the downturn of the economy.

2.3 Quantity and ratio of new registrations/renewals/withdrawals
The statistics of “.vn” new registrations, withdrawals and renewals in the years of 2012, 2013 and 2014 showed that there was a steady rise in the number of new registrations and renewals, which re�ects the sustainable development and customer loyalty of the “.vn” domain.

Figure 5: “.vn” Renewals (2012, 2013, 2014)
Figure 6: “.vn” Withdrawals (2012, 2013, 2014)
There was a slight increase in the number of “.vn” withdrawals in 2014, when the cumulative number of domains registered in the system goes up. Therefore, the ratios between the new registrations, withdrawals and renewals will be taken into consideration, in order to estimate the development and persistence of the Vietnam ccTLD as follows:

Figure 7: “.vn” Withdrawals/New registrations, Withdrawals/Renewals (2010 - 2014)
As it can be seen from the �gure above, during the period from 2010 to 2014, the peak development of “.vn” domain occurred in 2011, with the lowest ratio of withdrawals/new registrations in 5 years. In 2013 and 2014, this ratio climbed to nearly 67%, which proved the saturation of the domain market.
On the other hand, the Withdrawals/Renewals ratio has not much changed over the period, reaching 43.7% in 2014, as a result of the effort of VNNIC and registrars to compensate for the difficulties in developing new registrations. Customer loyalty and steady growth are considered as two important strengths of ccTLDs, in comparison with gTLDs. During recent years, “.vn” domain names have been maintaining those two characteristics.

By Sep 2014, there were 1,015,701 IDN.VN registered in the system. According to the World Report on Internationalised Domain Names 2014 published by EURid, this milestone of 1 million IDN.VN marked the �rst ranking position of Vietnam with the largest number of IDN registrations, re�ecting the interest and anticipation of the public, as well as the potential development of IDN.VN.

In the early stages of the Internet in Vietnam, the Department General of Post and Telecommunications (DGPT), the predecessor of Ministry of Information and Communications, was the government authority in charge of the management and operation of Internet number delegations and registrations in Vietnam. At that time, Vietnam Posts and Telecommunications Group (VNPT) was authorized by DGPT to apply the Internet resource request to APNIC and redelegate to other Vietnamese ISPs. After VNNIC was established on April 28th, 2000, VNNIC took over the function of managing Internet number resources and ASN in Vietnam.
On July 31st, 2003, VNNIC was recognized by APNIC as the National Internet Registry (NIR) of Vietnam. NIR, as a special member of APNIC, performes Internet number delegations and registrations in line with APNIC policy, to serve its respective Internet communities in the country.
During its history, VNNIC has strengthened the NIR role with the functions of managing, allocating, supervising and promoting the use of Internet numbers in Vietnam, and always served for the interest of the community in Vietnam, which was re�ected by the increasing number of addresses and VNNIC members all the time.
1. IPV4 ADDRESS1.1 IPv4 address growth over the years
Figure 46: IPv4 address growth over year
Since VNNIC was established and later became a NIR of Vietnam, the number of IPv4 addresses in Vietnam grew signi�cantly, especially from 2006 to 2010. At the moment VNNIC took over the management of Internet number from VNPT, number of IPv4 addresses was 16.896 addresses. Then, the number of IPv4 addresses reached 1 million addresses in 2007, 10 million addresses in 2010 and approximately 15.5 million addresses when APNIC announced its IPv4 exhaustion in 2011.
1.2 Vietnam's rank of the number of IPv4 addresses in the Asia Region and in the world
By October 2014, the number of IPv4 addresses in Vietnam was 15.627.008. Vietnam continued to rank the second in the ASEAN, the 8th in Asia and the 26th in the world in terms of IPv4 addresses.

There were positive evidences of the IPv6 deployment in Vietnam via the data of IPv6 pre�x and IPv6 ASN in BGP. However, there was not much change about the data of IPv6 users in Vietnam over the years.
According to Google statistics, the percentage of users that access Google over IPv6 was approximately 5%. However, for Vietnam, this percentage was unnoticable. According to APNIC Lab statistics, the percentage of IPv6 penetration in Vietnam is about 0.07% during 10 months of 2014, while Japan got (7%), Malaysia (5%), China (2%) and Thailand (0.5%) on October, 2014. Although most Vietnamese ISPs were IPv6-ready in their core networks, IPv6 is not available at access network level. It is important for Vietnam to deploy IPv6, especially promote IPv6 readiness for end users in the future.

VIETNAM NATIONAL INTERNET EXCHANGE – VNIX
| 77
Table 44: “.vn” queries breakdown by extension
Table 45: gTLD queries breakdown by extension
Internet Exchange Point (IX) is a physical infrastructure through which independent networks exchange Internet traffic, and plays a crucial role for the development of Internet.
In the early 2000s, the Internet in Vietnam was limited, with high cost and low traffic, low international bandwidth and insufficient direct connections among domestic ISPs. Vietnam National Internet Exchange (VNIX) was established in Nov 2003 to develop, enhance and improve the quality of Internet in Vietnam.
Throughout the development, VNIX has been contributing greatly to the growth of Internet in Vietnam, by suppor ting domestic ISPs with multilateral and bilateral connections, reducing cost and operation fees for service providers.
On 15th July 2013, the Prime Minister promulgated the Decree No. 72/2013/ND-CP on management, provision and use of Internet services and Internet information, in which VNIX was con�rmed with missions of supporting domestic ISPs in providing Internet services; giving convenience for ISPs to participate in interconnection agreements, especially in multilateral agreements and connections to international IXs.

4. Routing on VNIXVNIX supports routing activities and traffic exchanges among Internet service providers in Vietnam. Other organizations with independent networks also can connect to VNIX. The number of /24 IPv4 blocks and /64 IPv6 blocks announced via VNIX of a member depends on their number of addresses and customers.
