IPv4 has a finite lifetime (from 8 May 2007)• Projected IANA Unallocated Address Pool Exhaustion: 26-Dec-2009 • Projected RIR Unallocated Address Pool Exhaustion: 07-Aug-2010• Both projections are based on past history, so all bets are off once
scarcity starts. • Expect that the exhaustion event will occur before the end of this decade. • The impact of exhaustion and trading will affect everyone that gets
address space from a provider.• A rough ROI calculation for IPv6 deployment based on the IPv4 alternative
being $5-10 per day times the number of devices times the number of employees.

So what, you might ask
• We will have 3+ billion cellular phones by the end of 2007
• A growing number are IP capable• Trend toward Always-On applications
• Push Email, VoIP, IM, multimedia services
• Currently, many operators need to run both a circuit switched and an IP network. This leads to higher CAPEX and OPEX.
• In the future, services will migrate to IP.• So the choice is between
• IPv4 with NAT frequent Keep-Alives• IPv6 and long lived connections

NATs with keep alive messages
• IPv4 Mobile Devices are usually behind IPv4 NATs• Always on application are becoming more prevalent
• Push Email, VoIP, IM, etc.
• Applications that want to be reachable need to send periodic Keep-Alives to keep NAT state active• Current NATs require Keep-Alive from 40 seconds to 5 minutes• Need to implement for minimum ( ~30 seconds)
• Sending of NAT periodic keep-alive messages decreases mobile device standby time by several days
• Not a problem for devices with power cords, but for mobile devices it is a big problem
Client, Private IPv4 address 1
Server, Public IPv4 address 3Client, Private IPv4 address 2 UDP port = 6538
The UDP inactivity timer in NATs causes the public UDP port 6538 to be assigned to a different mobile, if the mobile does not send any data within a certain amount of time, about every 40 seconds …
There should be NO NATs between the
terminal and the server!

Not All NATs are created equal
• UDP and TCP timeouts vary widely, a default 30 seconds may be needed for UDP.
• Several different NAT traversal mechanisms are needed• STUN, TURN, ICE, Teredo• All bring additional terminal and network complexity • Additional CAPEX and OPEX• All NAT traversal mechanism do open some security holes.
• Even worse, you might be behind different NATs at different times of the day• Home, office, hotspot networks often use different types of NATs.
• Each requiring a different traversal mechanism• Performance over 3G is even worse
• UMTS radio state management prevents the mobile device from entering sleep mode, often reducing standby time by days.

What is Nokia Doing About This?
• Nokia has 3 major operating systems in use• Symbian is used for the S60 user interface• The Nokia Embedded OS is found on S40 terminals • Linux is supported on Nokia Internet Tablets.
• IPv6 is well supported over different radios:• 802.11 bg are supported in phones. • GSM, EDGE, WCDMA, HSPDA (which is 3.5G - up to 3.6 mps downlink), • Wimax will be supported in 2008.
• MIPv4 is available as an add-on, MIPv6 has been demonstrated, DS-MIP is actually needed for commercial services. DS-MIP is still uncompleted in the IETF.
• SIP is supported, as well as VoIP. • SIP/SIMPLE support comes in 2H06. NAT traversal is supported.
• Roaming is supported for VoIP, phones can select VoIP over WiFi when WiFi is available• Several flavors of Enterprise VoIP are supported, as well as 3rd party add-ons for
Skype, MSN,• VoIP support works with Gizmo Project and other services using standard SIP
backend.• In theory, IPv6 should work, but I haven't tested against all the different back-end
servers.• Transition mechanisms are currently not supported, for various reasons, but the
major has been that no one has seriously asked for any to be supported.

For Example …
• Mobile TV is good IPv6 Enabled Service• DVB-H standard supports both IPv4 and IPv6 are
supported• Nokia Mobile TV solution is based on IPv6 only
• This ensures that there will be enough IP addresses for all mobile TV users

Take-away thoughts
• I want my device to help me to communication, but I cannot communicate with an IP address or if my battery is dead.
• Convergence means taking disparate or fragmentary elements and integrating them into a new a new whole.
• IPv6 is the only scalable technology to enable multiple services, interconnecting with other networks.
