The IESG has approved the following document: - 'ISP IPv6 Deployment Scenarios in Broadband Access Networks ' <draft-ietf-v6ops-bb-deployment-scenarios-05.txt> as an Informational RFC This document is the product of the IPv6 Operations Working Group. The IESG contact persons are David Kessens and Dan Romascanu. A URL of this Internet-Draft is: http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-ietf-v6ops-bb-deployment-scenarios-05.txt Technical Summary This document provides detailed description of IPv6 deployment and integration methods and scenarios in today's Service Provider (SP) Broadband (BB) networks in coexistence with deployed IPv4 services. Cable/HFC, BB Ethernet, xDSL and WLAN are the main BB technologies that are currently deployed, and discussed in this document. The emerging Broadband Power Line Communications (PLC/BPL) access technology is also discussed for completeness. In this document we will discuss main components of IPv6 BB networks and their differences from IPv4 BB networks and how IPv6 is deployed and integrated in each of these BB technologies using tunneling mechanisms and native IPv6. Working Group Summary This document is a product of the v6ops working group. Protocol Quality David Kessens reviewed this document for the IESG. Note to RFC Editor In section 6.5: DELETE: Authentication and authorization should be used wherever possible. _______________________________________________ IETF-Announce@ietf.org https://www1.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/ietf-announce
