IPv6 INternet IniTiative

Objective

The objective of the 6INIT project is to prove the business case for Euro-IPv6 by defining implementation and set-up procedures for European IP Networks to offer production IPv6-based Internet services. The primary areas addressed within this project will be to:
- define operational procedures for IPv6 networks and for IPv4 to IPv6 network and application migration;
- interconnection of IPv6 native applications and IPv6/IPv4 networks;
- set up telephony and videophony services and access to video-n-demand services;
- implement IPv6 applications ( Stock Exchange, Remote Newspaper printing);
- initiate the implementation of IPv6 Internet Service Provider.

OBJECTIVES
The objective of the 6INIT project is to validate the introduction of the NEW INTERNET in Europe based on the new Internet Protocol version 6 (IPv6), which offers a solution for current problems in space address limitation, quality of service, mobility and security. The 6INIT project will lead to the set-up of a first European operational platform providing customers with native IPv6 access points and native IPv6 services. 6INIT is a co-ordinated initiative of the major European Telecom companies, equipment manufacturers, solutions / software providers and research labs that will lead to provide production IPv6 transit service to facilitate high quality, high performance, and operationally robust and secure IPv6 networks in view of wider deployment of European E-commerce and convergence.
