2 Adopting Oracle Data Centers, Desktops, and Delivery Rich Lewis IPv6 Product Manager, Global IT TXv6TF, November

3 Program Agenda Do we need IPv6? Plotting a course for Oracle. Oracle s vessel for IPv6 adoption. What Oracle is doing with IPv6. Lessons Learned. 3

4 Do we need IPv6? Ask many experts, get many answers Everyone has an opinion. IPv4 is good enough. Wait on the industry to catch up. Deploy IPv6 on the internet only. Deploy IPv6 / IPv4 dual stack. Deploy IPv6 and use IPv4 proxy for legacy. What are your business indicators? 4

5 Why we need IPv6? Customer Continuity Can your enterprise afford to turn off customers? Do you have a plan to reach IPv6 customers? Do you have enough IPv4 addresses to reach IPv6 users? 4Billion 340 Undecillion (Billion Billion Billion Billion) Are your customers already adopting IPv6? What is your IPv4 exhaustion plan? 5

6 Potential IP Address Impact 1,500,000,000 1,000,000, ,000,000 0 Population Internet Users Mobile Users China India United States Brazil Japan 6

7 Drivers for IPv6 IP Address Consumption ISPs and Carriers Hardware / Software Smart Phones Web Services Hosted / Managed Services Cloud Solutions 7

8 Plotting a Course for Oracle Define the Problem How to evolve 30+ years of networking? How to protect current investments? How to protect future deployments? What is the target destination? 8

9 Plotting a Course for Oracle Identify Solutions How to evolve 30+ years of networking? IPv4 -> Dual Stack -> IPv6 How to protect current investments? Dual Stack IPv6 / IPv4 How to protect future deployments? IPv6 Adoption Policy & Dual Stack What is the target destination? Growth with IPv6 9

10 Vessel for IPv6 Adoption IPv6 Program as umbrella. Multiple Strategic Projects. Dual Stack IPv6 / IPv4. Adopt IPv6. Phased approach rollout. Leverage technology refresh. Build knowledge and training. Identify IPv6 only opportunities. 10

11 Come up with ideas 11

12 Oracle IPv6 Ready Portfolio Oracle Solaris Oracle 11g Db Oracle Enterprise Linux Java Networking Oracle E-Business Suite Oracle Communications Messaging Server Oracle VirtualBox MySQL 12

13 IPv6 Beginnings How to begin with IPv4 IPv6 Address Plan IPv6 DNS & AAAA IPv6 Monitoring SNMP Syslog Netflow IPv6 Core Backbone Security IPv4 Transport IPv6 Payload 13

14 14

15 IPv6 Data Centers Create a blueprint Identify the easiest to tackle first. DC Age, Architecture, Standards Staffing Level, Location Staff Training. Inventory HW & SW. Apply IPv6 Address Plan (static hosts). Test Deployment (couple vlans). Execute across Data Center. 15

16 IPv6 Desktops Make it scalable Client Considerations SLAAC vs DHCPv6, Why not both??? Security, Security, Security IPv6 VPN Configuration IPv6 WiFi Adoption Application Considerations 16

17 Remove IPv6 Obstacles 1. Try it on the Network. Linux, Solaris, VirtualBox, Windows, Mac 2. Centralize training and documentation. 3. Define an IPv6 Adoption Policy. 4. Enable IPv6 support using IPv4 transport. 5. Create a target for IPv6 connections. 6. Adopt IPv6 for existing environment. 17

18 Lessons Learned Enlist champions and executive support Learn to swim, then learn to sail. Small steps, achievable milestones. Build on Successes Look for quick wins, reverse proxies. Identify new opportunities. Overcome IPv4 thinking 18

19 Lessons Learned Cont. Require IPv6 from your vendors Not all IPv6 is created equal. Service providers still lack support in many areas. Formalize requirements and drive delivery. Be cautious of middle layers lagging support of IPv6. Verify IPv6 Support, take the Missouri approach Show Me! 19

20 Watch for the Reefs Ask for IPv6. Not all IPv6 is equal. Seek out new opportunities. Create standards. Verify in your own environment. Become an IPv6 salesperson. IPv6 is not always to blame. Focus on the goal IPv6. 20
