If you were the first person to use IPv6 on the Internet, there was no one to talk to.\u00a0 That is a bit like being trapped on a deserted IPv6 island surrounded by an ocean of IPv4 with nothing but a\u00a0volleyball for a friend<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\"<\/p>\n

Thankfully, now, there are many Internet systems that use IPv6 so the world isn\u2019t as lonely.\u00a0 However, many enterprise organizations are still not adopting IPv6.\u00a0 For the later adopters of IPv6, their experience will be different than it was for the early adopters or those deploying it today.<\/p>\n

Years Ago<\/h2>\n

In the early days of IPv6 testing, about the only website that ran IPv6 was\u00a0www.kame.net<\/a>. You would go there to see the \u201cdancing turtle\u201d animated GIF indicating you had IPv6 connectivity.\u00a0 Kame is the name of a Japanese turtle and also the name of the\u00a0WIDE Project<\/a>\u00a0team that worked on the\u00a0early IPv6 protocol implementation in the BSD operating system<\/a>.<\/p>\n

As recently as 2010 and earlier, there were only trace amounts of IPv6 packets on the Internet.\u00a0 IPv4 was still the dominant protocol at this time.\u00a0 For example, the following picture shows an Internet Protocol\u00a0see-saw playground device<\/a>\u00a0where IPv4 traffic volumes \u201cweighed\u201d the most and IPv6 usage was \u201clight\u201d.<\/p>\n

\"see-saw<\/p>\n

If you implemented IPv6 in this era, you initially had very little IPv6 traffic because the world still predominantly used IPv4.\u00a0 However, over time your amount of IPv6 traffic grew as the world adopted IPv6.\u00a0 For example, the following IPv6 traffic volume percentage graph depicts what the early slow adoption, middle-phase gradual adoption, and eventual migration to IPv6 over 20 years looks like.<\/p>\n

\"IPv6<\/p>\n

Today<\/h2>\n

Currently, all enterprise organizations have already deployed dual-protocol operating systems.\u00a0 You would be hard-pressed to find an operating system that is IPv4-only out-of-the-box.\u00a0 Today, in enterprise networks with IPv4-only networks, these dual-protocol operating systems are receiving back both IPv4 A records and IPv6 AAAA records from their DNS queries.\u00a0 Unfortunately, these stuck-in-the-office hosts, are only able to make IPv4 connections.<\/p>\n

However, once a mobile device for instance leaves the office, connects to 4G services or goes home with its user and connects to a broadband ISP via a home network, the device\u2019s network stack becomes IPv6-enabled. An\u00a0ICMPv6 Type 134 Router Advertisement (RA) message<\/a>\u00a0is received, the IPv6 stack awakens and it starts to use IPv6.\u00a0 Today, the vast majority of mobile devices already use IPv6 on their 3G\/4G\/5G networks and many broadband Internet access residential networks use IPv6.<\/p>\n

The Internet is reaching the\u00a0tipping point where there is more IPv6 traffic than IPv4 traffic<\/a>.\u00a0 IPv6 is becoming the dominant Internet protocol in\u00a0India and a few other countries<\/a>.\u00a0 Today, we are deep into the dual-protocol transition phase and as a result are seeing statistics that show that some parts of the Internet are at 50% IPv4 traffic and 50% IPv6 traffic.\u00a0 Just like any measurement, the result depends where the measurement is taken.\u00a0 Some countries still have more IPv4 and a couple of countries have more IPv6 than IPv4.\u00a0 Today\u2019s see-saw picture looks like a stalemate of equal-weight sides.<\/p>\n

\"IPv6<\/p>\n

If your organization implements IPv6 today, then you will immediately start to generate and receive a significant amount of IPv6 connections and packets.\u00a0 For example, according to\u00a0W3Techs<\/a>, over 29% of the Alexa top 1000 websites now use IPv6.\u00a0 The more popular the web site, the more likely it is to use IPv6, but the reality is that many websites still need to deploy IPv6.<\/p>\n

\"according<\/p>\n

If your organization implemented IPv6 today, your IPv6 traffic volumes will start to rise immediately and continue to increase as the worldwide adoption of IPv6 continues over the next 10 years.<\/p>\n

\"IPv6<\/p>\n

Future<\/h2>\n

In another decade, the transition to IPv6 will be nearly complete with nearly all Internet traffic relying on IPv6.\u00a0 In this phase, there will only be trace amounts of legacy IPv4 in spaces that are isolated.\u00a0 In this stage there are numerous IPv6-only applications and IPv4 is only used when it is required to connect to very old networked devices and systems.\u00a0 The following picture shows the Internet Protocol see-saw playground device where IPv6 \u201cweighs\u201d the most and a small amount of IPv4 still exists.<\/p>\n

\"IPv6<\/p>\n

If an organization waits until this late-stage \u201claggard\u2019s phase<\/a>\u201d to implement IPv6, then their traffic will be entirely over IPv4 one day, then the next day, after deploying IPv6, it will immediately switch to predominantly IPv6.\u00a0 Overnight they will go from very little IPv6 to using IPv6 almost exclusively.\u00a0 This is because all systems on the Internet would have already switched to using IPv6 and now the formerly laggard organization can finally access all these systems and applications over IPv6 transport.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

This picture shows the IPv6 traffic levels for the late-adopter when they finally implement IPv6.\u00a0 Therefore, the later they wait to deploy IPv6, the more dramatic the traffic shift will be from IPv4 to IPv6.<\/p>\n

\"<\/p>\n

If someone is\u00a0 the\u00a0last person on Earth to deploy IPv6<\/a>, and everyone else in the world is running dual-protocol, then they immediately switch from making connections over IPv4 to making connections over IPv6.\u00a0 However, it won\u2019t exactly work that way when the\u00a0laggard\u2019s phase<\/a>\u00a0is reached.\u00a0 At that extremely late stage, most people would have already moved through the dual-protocol stage and, as early as 2030, may have even\u00a0turned off IPv4 altogether<\/a>.\u00a0 They will have difficulty communicating with the last few remaining sites that still use IPv4.<\/p>\n

Conclusions<\/h2>\n

Today, some organizations might be surprised by the fact that the Internet has moved from the first phase where IPv4 was dominant to the current phase where we have equal amounts of IPv4 and IPv6.\u00a0 As a result, such organizations may not be ready for the IPv6 transition to the third phase where IPv6 is the dominant Internet protocol.<\/p>\n

If you estimate that your enterprise organization will take a decade to completely migrate away from IPv4 and you are not planning to embark on an IPv6 project until 2025, you are going to end up in the laggard\u2019s category.\u00a0 Most enterprise organizations do not typically take a laggard\u2019s approach to other information technologies.\u00a0 Why then would organizations take a laggard\u2019s approach to the next-generation Internet protocol?<\/p>\n
