It's hard to bid farewell to an old friend like IPv4, but it's no longer a case of IF or WHEN ... we're already at HOW when Google starts offering an IPv6-enabled site. But right now we're all stuck on scattered islands of IPv6: we need to find our common ground.
This Summit will look at recent IPv6 transitions - and how users, government, vendors and service providers can work together on planning, security and implementation strategies.
Internet Protocol Version 6 offers enhanced mobility, simpler management, built-in security and almost unlimited Internet addresses for next-generation devices. The IPv6 Summit offers two days of international and Australian experts, plus an optional one-day IPv6 Deployment Workshop to provide a hands-on guide to implementation.
