Abstract:
As the deployment of third and fourth generation cellular networks
progresses, a large number of cellular hosts are being connected to
the Internet. Standardization organizations are making Internet
Protocol version 6 (IPv6) mandatory in their specifications.
However, the concept of IPv6 covers many aspects and numerous
specifications. In addition, the characteristics of cellular links
in terms of bandwidth, cost and delay put special requirements on how
IPv6 is used. This document considers IPv6 for cellular hosts that
attach to the General Packet Radio Service (GPRS), Universal Mobile
Telecommunications System (UMTS), or Evolved Packet System (EPS)
networks (Hereafter collectively referred to as 3GPP networks). This
document also lists out specific IPv6 functionality that needs to be
implemented in addition what is already prescribed in the IPv6 Node
Requirements document. It also discusses some issues relating to the
use of these components when operating in these networks. This
document obsoletes RFC 3316.
