Performance Analysis of Three Transition Mechanisms between IPv6 Network and IPv4 Network: Dual Stack, Tunneling and Translation

2016

Due to the increasing demand of the Internet, we are facing a great problem of the depletion of our existing IPv4 (Internet Protocol version 4) network. To solve the situation, we have to use IP version 6 in coming years. But the IPv4 network will not be opt out, but also coexist with IPv6 network. For the transition from IPv4 to IPv6 and vice versa, there are three prominent transition mechanisms are used. They are Dual Stack, Tunneling and Translation. In this paper, the performances of these three mechanisms have been analyzed. IPv6 header format, its security and the routing also have been focused. For the simulation Packet Tracer simulation software has been used .

IPv4/IPv6 Transition

2012

The new Internet Protocol (IPv6) has been developed to replace the current Internet Protocol (IPv4) and the transition from IPv4 to IPv6 is a necessary process in the realization of global Internet. The development of IPv6 technology and continuous increases in application, but this process will take long time so a transition methods will be needed. There are many IPv4/IPv6 transition methods already exist today, some of them applied in practice, the others still as proposed solutions. Tunneling and encapsulation methods are the most techniques that used until now, but all encapsulation mechanisms suffer from the increasing of the overhead traffic network as a result for either encapsulating IPv4 packet in the IPv6 packet or encapsulating IPv6 packet in the IPv4 packet. In this paper we proposed a system that make incompatible nodes; the first based IP4 the other based IPv6, communicate together without increasing packets size, this system is called Bi-Directional Transition System (BDTS). This system depends on understanding of the two environment of transmission , that is , received the source packet then converting the information header to be adaptable to the destination end. Our system has been implemented then we made a test by simulation tool called VMware ,during this simulation our system was studied in one scenario and the results shown that BDTS make two incomputable protocol hosts communicate together.

A Comparative Analysis of Transition Mechanisms for IPv6/IPv4 Routing Environment

1999

This paper introduces an analysis for IPv6/IPv4 routed protocols on different transition mechanisms named IPv4 compatibility mechanisms that can be implemented by IPv6 hosts and routers. These mechanisms include providing complete implementations of both versions of the Internet Protocol (IPv4 and IPv6), and tunneling IPv6 packets over IPv4 routing infrastructures. They are designed to allow IPv6 nodes to maintain complete compatibility with IPv4, which should greatly simplify the deployment of IPv6 in the Internet, and facilitate the eventual transition of the entire Internet to IPv6.

Design and Comparison Migration between Ipv4 and Ipv6 Transition Techniques

2019

IPv4 which is the old version of Internet Protocol has a new successor named IP Next Generation (IPng) or IPv6 developed by Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF). This new version is developed specifically to resolve some issues of IPv4 like scalability, performance and reliability. Although new version is ready for usage, it is obvious that it will take years to transit fully from IPv4 to IPv6. We have to use these two versions together for a long time. Therefore, we have to investigate and know transition mechanisms that we can use during transition period to achieve a transition with minimum problem. This research defines the essential information about compatibility transition mechanisms between IPv4-IPv6. Dual Stack is one of the IPv4-IPv6 compatible mechanism by running both IPv4 stack and IPv6 stack in a single node. 6 to 4 tunneling mechanism encrypts IPv6 packets in IPv4 packets to make communications possible, from IPv6 network over IPv4 network. This has been configured ...

Comparison and Transition Study of Internet Protocol Version 4 & 6 (IPV4 &IPV6)

International Journal of Advanced Research in Computer Science, 2017

With the evolution of internet over the years the transition from ipv4to ipv6 has become a great necessity. Due to the shortage of ipv4 address space provided by the IANA (internet assigned numbers authority) we are left with no choice but to go for ipv6 transition process. By default, ipv4 and ipv6 network cannot communicate with each other, so we have to provide the facility of communication between them. This facility can be provided by various transition mechanisms which includes dual stack mechanism, tunnelling and NAT protocol translation. This paper demonstrates comparison study between ipv4 and ipv6 and the transition from ipv4 to ipv6.

Transition of IPv4 Network Applications to IPv6 Applications [TIPv4 toTIPv6

In this Paper we discuss our experience for transition the IPv4 network applications to IPv6 network applications[TIPv4 toTIPv6].This paper also discusses how to port an IPv4 broadcast application to IPv6 in this IPv6 has no implemented concept of broadcast. These extensions are designed to provide access to the basic IPv6 features required by TCP and UDP applications, including multicasting, while introducing a minimum of change into the system and providing complete compatibility for existing IPv4 applications. We have discussed number of issues arising during the transition of a platform to IPv6 like which would be the easiest and simple approach to the transition procedure, how compatibility with earlier IPv4 -only versions of the platform could be retained, if there are any useful tools for assisting this task how and when one could be positive that the necessary modifications had been made, and which testing procedures should be followed.

A platform for porting IPv4 applications to IPv6

International Journal of Computing and Digital Systems

Developing a new application passes through several stages needing considerable effort from analysts, designers, and programmers, which can be extremely time-consuming and often results in the unnecessary expenditure of large sums of money. It is also known that there is currently a myriad of applications that only support the internet protocol version 4 (IPv4) network. Building a new application from scratch that supports the internet protocol version 6 (IPv6) network is very expensive. Re-engineering these applications that support the IPv4 network to make them support the IPv6 network is the best solution to reduce effort and cost. The aim of this paper is to design and implement a platform used for automatically porting the C++, C#, and visual basic IPv4 network applications to IPv6, by using a partial re-engineering approach. The re-engineered system portion shall be integrated with the current non-re-engineered portion. The main process of porting is conducted by replacing all the IPv4 dependent statements with their corresponding IPv6 dependent statements. Furthermore, all constant values of IPv4 addresses are replaced by suitable IPv6 ones. The proposed porting platform will reduce the duration time for porting network applications to support IPv6 to minutes rather than hours, days, months in manual porting.

Evaluation and Study of Transition Techniques Addressed on IPv4-IPv6

International Journal of Computer Applications, 2013

IPv4/IPv6 transition rolls out many challenges to the world of internet. IETF proposes various transition techniques including dual IP stack, IP translation and tunnelling transition mechanisms. A detailed study is made on the IPv6 addressing architecture. Out of the three mechanisms Tunnelling proves to be most effective in the study which has been done. The 6rd mechanism that is used for IPv4/IPv6 transition mechanism permits an IPv6 mobile node to roam into IPv4 based network and get serviced besides roaming in IPv6 based network. This paper aims at a comparative study on the three transition techniques such as Softwire mesh which supports Dual Stack, NAT444 which supports translation and IPv6 Rapid Development (6rd) mechanism in tunnelling mechanism.

A STUDY ON IPv4 and IPv6: THE IMPORTANCE OF THEIR CO-EXISTENCE

International Journal of Information Systems and Engineering

This paper aims at evaluating, compare and report result based on the performance of two protocol stacks (IPv4 and IPv6) in terms of various parameters that is analyzed when the data is being transmitted from one client to another or to a server over a wired network on IPv4 in comparison with the IPv6, thus proposing a system that supports the coexistence of both IPv4 and IPv6. The issue of the new-generation numbering system of the Internet Protocol version 6 (IPv6) is addressed as exhaustion of address space of the numbering system of Internet Protocol version 4 (IPv4) becomes a problem. An explained study is performed on the IPv6 addressing architecture and yet the almighty goals are still not met. IPv4/IPv6 transition unfolds a lot of problems relating to the internet world. This paper proposes some transition mechanisms involving Dual Stack and Tunneling transition techniques. An explained study is performed on the addressing architecture. However these techniques prove to be most efficient in the study which has been performed. This paper targets at a comparative study on the throughputs in bits/ seconds, packet throughputs, delay in networks, response time in seconds of both IPv4 and IPv6. Hence, since the system proposes for coexistence of both IPv4 and IPv6, the solution projected in this paper is "DUAL STACK where you can and TUNNEL where you have to".

Evaluation of the performance of techniques to transmit ipv6 data through ipv4 networks

TECCIENCIA, 2013

This article presents the simulation of an IPv4 network connected to two IPv6 isles. Those protocols are not compatible; therefore, transition mechanisms were implemented to fulfill a fundamental role. Meanwhile, this reaches the total deployment of IPv6, such as: Tunneling and Address translation. The first, encapsulates an IPv6 packet inside an IPv4 Header so that it can be moved through the network; the second, translates the address and the protocol of those packets crossing through it. To assess the performance of each technique when the data is sent, the changes with respect to memory consumption and router processing were analyzed.
