The work is backed up by the practical experiments, using the GateD software routing suite on RedHat Linux platform for IPv4, and pim6sd and pim6dd on FreeBSD for IPv6. The architecture used by the experiments revealed the operation of the following routing protocols: DVMRP, PIM-SM and PIM-DM in IPv4/IPv6. The deployment of a multicast testbed is more complex than for a unicast one. It involves a multicast traffic source, at least one member for that multicast group and the multicast routers.

متن کاملA Distributed Waypoint Service Approach to Connect Heterogeneous Internet Address Spaces
The rapid growth of the Internet has made IPv4 addresses a scarce resource. Today we witness two major trends to get around this problem. The first is to upgrade and deploy networks using IPv6; the second is to deploy networks using reusable-IPv4 addresses. As a result, the Internet is rapidly evolving into a collection of networks of heterogeneous address spaces. Such development jeopardizes t...

In this paper we describe usage of FreeBSD operating system for IPv6 Multicast routing platform in SOI-Asia Project. SOI-Asia project is platform to deliver realtime lecture via UniDirectional Link of satellite to several countries in Asia. Because of limited bandwidth in satellite, we use IPv6 multicast to deliver material of lecture and realtime video and audio lecture. We also describe human...
متن کاملNGTRANS Working Group
This document specifies the Intra-Site Automatic Tunnel Addressing Protocol (ISATAP) that connects IPv6 hosts and routers (nodes) within IPv4 sites. ISATAP is a transition mechanism that enables incremental deployment of IPv6 by treating the site’s IPv4 infrastructure as a Non-Broadcast Multiple Access (NBMA) link layer for IPv6. ISATAP mechanisms use an IPv6 interface identifier format that em...
متن کاملPerformance Analysis and Comparison of 6to4 Relay Implementations
The depletion of the public IPv4 address pool may speed up the deployment of IPv6. The coexistence of the two versions of IP requires some transition mechanisms. One of them is 6to4 which provides a solution for the problem of an IPv6 capable device in an IPv4 only environment. From among the several 6to4 relay implementations, the following ones were selected for testing: sit under Linux, stf ...
