• IPv6 and ETSI some initiatives

• Reference to IPV6 by committees (e.g. 3GPP)
• Interoperability events
• IP-T (testing) committee
• IPv6 logo programme

4th IPv6 Task Force MeetingIPv6 Roadmap
Recommendations

• Approved recommendations
• .The requirement for IPv6 implies a need for
  coordinated trials and tests . which are more
  likely to succeed via both harmonisation of
  standards and readily available interoperability
  events (such as those offered by ETSI). .
• European Industry is called to
• Support and fully participate in interoperability
  events organised notably by ETSI,

n

The ETSI interoperability service a new
permanent service since end 2000.

• Experiment in the period 99 2000 the interest
  to complement the standardisation works using
  regular meetings by the organisation of
   bake-offs  where participants bring
  implementations/products
• Confirm at the GA 35, nov. 2000, the interest of
  such service and create a permanent one the
  ETSI Interoperability Service
• July 2001 change the name  bake-off  , a
  trade-mark of Pillsbury by  Plugtests 
• End 2002, 600 companies send about 2000 engineers
  to 26 interoperability events

4
We organize Plugtests events

• Plugtests interoperability tests event where
  engineers of competing companies get together to
  test a (draft) standard and their implementations
• Plugtests event
• open event, I.e. everyone implementing the
  standard is welcome to participate
• closed event, i.e. no sales marketing
  representatives, no customers
• Goal improving interoperability by enhancing the
  quality of the specification
• Open to all communication standards

IPT Group

• MTS IP Testing group
• See http//www.etsi.org/ptcc/ptccIPT.htm
• Formed in October 2002
• Well supported
• Will work on both conformance and
  interoperability
• IPv6
• Scoping phase started (STF236)
• Finish April 2003
• Proposal for eEurope 2005
• Test methods, TPs, Test Suites
• close cooperation with IPv6 Forum and 3GPP
• SIGTRAN
• voluntary work (12 organizations so far)
• specifying conformance tests for M3UA and SCT
• Others to be defined

The IPv6 Ready Logo Programme

• Laurent Toutain
• César Viho

10
Why a Logo Programme

• Avoid confusion in the mind of customers with a
  unique programme
• Give a strong signal to the market of IPv6
  availability
• Prove the interoperability degree of various IPv6
  products
• Enhance confidence of users that IPv6 is
  currently operational

To summarize, this logo programme will contribute
to the feeling that IPv6 is available and ready
to be used
11
A SMOOTH AND GRADUAL APPROACH

• Two phases
• Short-term period (Bootstrap)
• Pragmatic approach
• Mainly based on existing interoperability events
• IPv6 mandatory core protocols and
  interoperability
• Long-term period
• Formal approach
• Based on requirements issued by the IPv6 Logo
  Committee (v6LC)
• product has successfully satisfied strong formal
  requirements

12
THE IPv6 LOGO PROGRAMME COMMITTEE (v6LC)

• Giving the right to affix the IPv6 logos for
  products
• Composed by 21 persons representative of the
  expertise of the different main actors involved
  in IPv6 members are either equipment vendors,
  providers, academics, organizations, and test
  laboratories

13
HOW TO REQUEST AN IPv6 LOGO?

• Procedures to request will be based on self
  declaration mode
• The IPv6 Logo Committee will define procedures
  and rules (including application forms) to obtain
  an IPv6 Logo
• Companies interested in obtaining an IPv6 logo
  for a product must contact the v6LC and send the
  appropriate application forms
