Abstract

In this text we present the results of a set of experiments, focused on the context of enterprise networks, that are designed to be a step towards analysing how effective network renumbering procedures may be in the context of IPv6. An IPv6 site will need to get provider assigned (PA) address space from its upstream ISP. Because provider independent (PI) address space is not available for IPv6, a site wishing to change provider will need to renumber from its old network prefix to the new one. In a previous deliverable, D3.6.1, we looked at the scenarios, issues and enablers for such renumbering. Here we present results and conclusions and updated recommendations in the context of additional SOHO tests and for new experiments undertaken in enterprise (campus) renumbering. Reporting on ISP renumbering is limited; the reader is instead referred to D.3.6.1 for backbone network renumbering results.
