RIPE NCC and the European Commission Conduct IPv6 Deployment Study

The RIPE NCC has been working closely with the European Commission (EC) on an IPv6 Deployment Monitoring Survey. The survey aims to give a clear view of IPv6 deployment in the RIPE NCC service region and to suggest what can be done to ensure the Internet community is ready for the widespread adoption of IPv6. The results of this survey will contribute to a better global picture of current and future IPv6 deployment. These results will be discussed at RIPE 58 in Lisbon, Portugal, in October 2009 and will be published on the IPv6ActNow website at: www.IPv6actnow.org.

The survey was developed in consultation with members of the RIPE community, and is inspired by the 2008 survey conducted by ARIN and CAIDA in North America. It is sponsored by the EC, which has actively supported the adoption of IPv6.
