The increased IPv6 address space has not only driven the use of heuristics when performing IPv6 address scans, but it has also led to the exploration of alternative techniques for finding IPv6 nodes.

In this paper, the authors present the development of a one-to-many reversible mapping mechanism simulation for IPv6 address generation. This paper mechanism is to improve IPv6 addresses generation in ...

Internet service providers (ISPs) are running out of public IPv4 addresses and want to move away from IPv4 in their internal network. Mapping of Address and Port with Encapsulation (MAP-E), an IPv6 ...

There are a number of ways to deal with IPv4 exhaust and IPv6 transition, including Carrier Grade NAT and stateful Dual Stack Lite. Cisco has added another method called Mapping of Address and Port ...

While there are now billions of IPv6 addresses that could be active at any given time, there are no precise estimates as to how many or where they are. A pair of researchers approached the challenge ...

As any geek, I find it a lot of fun to get some hands with the new technology – be it a new gadget, new product or a solution. It’s not very often that I have a chance to play with a whole new ...

IPv6 has been gaining traction since it was developed in the late 1990s, and enterprises that are implementing it now are considered to be among the early majority – meaning widespread adoption is ...

IPv6 has been one of the hottest topics of 2011. The heat around this subject was kindled with ICANN ‘s announcement that they’d depleted their IPv4 addresses by issuing their last two /8’s but ...
