The migration from IPv4 to IPv6 is ready for the implementation phase. That was the view at the second Asia-Pacific IPv6 Summit held in Malaysia earlier this year, where many of the key speakers talked of the push for IPv6 business applications and plans to move out of trials and into commercial IPv6 services.
According to Daniel Hua, vice-president, IP Division, Alcatel Asia-Pacific, North American service providers see little need to spend money on IPv6 given that there is no "killer" application and a strong case that the current IPv4 address space will be sufficient for some time.
