4、ion technologies,everything in the world is more closely connected,forming a huge network that bridges people and things.Future-shaping technologies such as AI,5G,cloud,and IoT are like threads that connect us together.A fundamental enabler lies at the core of all these technologies:the IP address.I

5、t gives devices a key that they need to connect to the network;without it,they cant talk to each other.The previous protocol used for IP addressing was IPv4,which was designed in the early 1980s with a maximum total of only 4.3 billion addresses.The explosive growth of intelligent devices has exhaus

6、ted the available IPv4 addresses,and IPv6 was introduced to solve this problem once and for all.With 3.8*1038 total addresses available,IPv6 would be able to assign every grain of sand on earth an IP address.On the basis of providing massive address resources,IPv6 is also developing continuously.In

7、addition to providing basic IP addresses,IPv6 provides higher-quality and smarter connections through the combination of emerging technologies,namely IPv6 Enhanced Innovation12,offering more future possibilities and accelerainge the deployment of advanced business applications like 5G,cloud,and indu

8、strial IoT.At this moment,we find it necessary to reflect on how the world has progressed in this transition and summarize the concrete socio-economic value IPv6 Enhanced Innovation have created.We construct an IPv6 Development Index and reference data from public databases to calculate and provide

9、a country-level measurement of IPv6 development status.The framework is based on the well-acknowledged approaches previously adopted by the Latin American and Caribbean Internet Address Registry(LACNIC)3,the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development(OECD)4,and Cisco5.In terms of data sou

10、rces,we use data from Asia Pacific Internet Network Information Center(APNIC),Cisco and authoritative research institutions and organizations such as Routeviews,OVH and WOS as raw data input to ensure data reliability and objectivity.Based on datasets referenced from above databases,we used the Inde

11、x model to calculate Index result for 92 countries to measure their IPv6 development status,and conducted a quantitative analysis of the economic impact of IPv6 Enhanced Innovation in various industries.On this basis,we divided 92 countries into three groups according to the level of IPv6 developmen

12、t and identified 3 countries as benchmark countries,and performed an in-depth analysis of their development.In addition,this years report further analyzes the value,status,and reasons for IPv6 development in 15 countries around the world and puts forward tailored recommendations.In policy recommenda

13、tions,this report has been comprehensively upgraded compared with the 2021 study.Based on the common challenges and main differences between the development of IPv6 Enhanced Innovationin different groups of countries,we put forward detailed and executable recommendations for different country rankin

17、com operators,internet content providers,and equipment manufacturers have all participated in the rush into a new digital world.5 GLOBAL IPV6 DEVELOPMENT REPORT 2022 1.IPv6:definition and value In todays world,IP address is an important basic resource of the Internet,the basis for identification and

18、 data transmission between systems,and an important infrastructure for high-quality development of the global economy.However,with the wide application of the Internet,challenges and constraints of the global Internet Protocol version 4(IPv4),such as the exhaustion of IP addresses and the difficulty

19、 in guaranteeing service quality,have become increasingly prominent due to the undervalued demand for both size and quality for IP addresses by the development of the Internet and the digital economy in the early stage of Internet design.In this context,it is gradually becoming a globally acknowledg

20、ed consensus that we should vigorously develop and deploy Internet Protocol Version 6(IPv6)following the guidelines and best practices from IPv6 Enhanced Innovation.This will provide sufficient network addresses and broad innovation space for Internet and the digital economy.IPv6 Enhnaced Innovation

21、 guide to a proper deployment of IPv6 protocol as a basis to other functionalities defined in IETF,like SRv6.Innovative applications will provide much more convenient,open,intelligent,and secure internet and to facilitate an intelligent world where everything is intelligently connected.1.1 Overview

22、of IPv6 The IP address is the basis of the IP protocol(Internet Protocol)and is the unique identifier for network devices to access the Internet or a local network.Internet Protocol version 6(IPv6)is the latest IP revision,developed as a successor to IPv4.While greatly enhancing the address pool,IPv

29、impact model Today the scope of IPv6 is not only IP addresses,but also includes IPv6 Enhanced Innovations including SRv6 and other technologies.IPv6 development will positively affect virtually every industry sector.Since industries have differing economic and regulatory structures that will affect

30、the timing for IPv6 adoption,we chose 2025 as the analysis timeframe and focused on short-to-mid-term impact.After analyzing the micro-and macro-economic impacts expected by IPv6,we projected forward to 2025,and looked at the economic contributions of IPv6 Enhanced Innovation through three lenses in

31、 12 major industry sectors(See Appendix A for details).The first lens examined the value created by innovative technologies and their application scenarios,mainly focusing on 5G/IoT/cloud,empowered by IPv6 Enhanced Innovation.The second lens focused on the level of efficiency improvements enabled by

32、 IPv6 and IPv6 Enhanced Innovation.The third lens examined cost reduction by preventing data security issues with different issue type.The following provides an overview of the methodology for these three impacts.Figure 6.Methodology of IPv6 value creation by industry 2.1.2 IPv6 value creation by in

33、dustry result analysis Based on our model and expert input,we estimate that potential global value created across multiple industry sectors enabled by IPv6 could reach$7.3 trillion in 2025.This represents about 3.7%of all global real output in 2025.IPv6 industry value creation:The following figure p

61、nt-runners,Adopters and Starters.Among them,the leaders are countries that are relatively leading in the development of IPv6 and its innovative applications.18 GLOBAL IPV6 DEVELOPMENT REPORT 2022 Figure 21.Average index score by groups Driver analysis：At the sub-indicator level of the IPv6 Developme

62、nt Index,the differences between countries mainly come from the four dimensions of network,users,performance and innovation.This illustrates the importance of improving users ability to access the Internet through IPv6,deploying cutting-edge IPv6 innovative applications to improve IPv6 performance,a

63、nd making sufficient cutting-edge preparations for the future.Figure 22.Average index score by groups In the comparison of the various groups of the IPv6 Development Index,we found that performance and innovation are the main factors that separate the differences among the three groups of front-runn

64、ers,adopters,and starters:Performance:There are certain differences among the three groups End-to-end equipment quality:the quality of operator networks,content provider networks,and terminal equipment will directly affect the deployment of IPv6.The digitalization level of most starters and some acc

65、elerator countries is in the initial stage.Since operators have a relatively weak foundation in digital infrastructure equipment and applications,the deployment performance of IPv6 may be poor compared to the frontrunners.IPv4 deployment maturity:Since the deployment of IPv4 line equipment in many c

66、ountries is very mature,and IPv4-related optimization is complete,IPv6 equipment still needs time to be optimized.As a result,compared with IPv4,the performance advantages of IPv6 are difficult to fully reflect.19 GLOBAL IPV6 DEVELOPMENT REPORT 2022 Figure 23.Country ranking of IPv6 Development Inde

71、lization level:The digitalization level and the development requirements of 5G and IoT will increase the motivation of operators to deploy IPv6.Front-runners and adopters generally have a high level of digitalization,and their terminals have a high demand for 5G and IoT development.The motivation of

72、 their domestic operators to deploy IPv6 will also increase significantly.Operator industry concentration:Many countries among front-runners and adopters have a 20 GLOBAL IPV6 DEVELOPMENT REPORT 2022 high degree of operator industry concentration and a large average size of operators.Since the penet

73、ration of new technologies generally starts from leading enterprises and gradually develops to small and medium-sized enterprises,the resistance encountered during IPv6 transformation is relatively small,so the transformation speed is relatively fast.Figure 25.Country ranking of IPv6 Development Ind

74、ex Network Users:There is a big difference between the frontrunners and the starters,mainly affected by the level of digitalization and equipment supply Digitization level:Frontrunners have a high level of digitalization,and end users have high requirements for IPv6 and IoT applications.IPv6 deploym

75、ent in the public sector:IPv6 deployment within the government also widely exists in leading countries,which further affects the popularization of terminal IPv6.Ratio of terminal stock to increase:some frontrunners belong to latecomer countries and have accelerated the development of digital constru

76、ction in recent years;due to a large number of new users,new terminal increments can directly deploy IPv6 equipment,and deployment is more resistant than equipment replacement small.Concentration of operators:Among the starters,the concentration of operators in many countries is relatively low,and t

77、he market competition is full.Since terminal routes are mainly provided by operators,it will take a long time for IPv6 to be recognized by the market,and the speed of implementation and deployment in terminals is relatively slow.Figure 26.Country ranking of IPv6 Development Index Users 3.1.2.4 IPv6

80、ses and leading deployment for other countries.23 GLOBAL IPV6 DEVELOPMENT REPORT 2022 3.2.1 USA The United States is a digitalization pioneer.It now has a highly developed digital industry,resulting in high demand for IP addresses.As a result,IPv6 was implemented early in the United States,and its a

81、doption rate is higher than in most other nations.On the other hand,the United States possesses a huge number of IPv4 addresses,and its equipment and services are optimized to meet the needs of IPv4,whereas the setup of IPv6 native equipment and services has not yet been optimized.Therefore,it will

82、take time for the relative penetration of IPv6(in comparison to IPv4)to increase.Implications The legislative priorities of early adopters with a healthy digital economy must be forward-looking,such as making the connection between IPv6 and other emerging technologies such as 5G and IoT.Pioneering t

83、he investigation of cutting-edge technologies and trial applications to transform the digital infrastructure is the means for leading nations to keep their competitive advantage.Undoubtedly,the growth of the digital economy is the driving force behind the development of IPv6.The necessity and econom

84、ic significance of adopting IPv6IPv6 Enhanced Innovations rises as the demand for IP inside the digital infrastructure rises.Enforcing end-to-end IPv6-only networks for government services,healthcare,and education,etc.,considerably increases the implementation of IPv6IPv6 Enhanced Innovations.IPv6 i

85、ndustry sector impact We estimate that the potential value created by deploying IPv6 across multiple industries in the US would total$2.4 trillion by 2025,equivalent to 5.2%of the gross value of these industries in 2025.Figure 29.IPv6 industry value creation in United States IPv6 development status

86、USA is ranked 7 out of 91 countries with a score of 0.53 and falls into the category of front-runners.This means that USA is considered a leader in development of IPv6.24 GLOBAL IPV6 DEVELOPMENT REPORT 2022 Figure 30.IPv6 development in United States 3.2.2 China The Chinese government has achieved s

87、ignificant results in driving the IPv6 transition among operators,content service providers,and key device manufacturers through a set of multi-level and highly binding policies.Implications National policies are observed to work the best when endorsed by a high-level strategic blueprint.The Digital

88、 China strategy outlined in the 14th Five-Year Plan is considered an example.To expedite the digital transition,it is recommended that governments embrace strategy that includes goals and support for the digital society,government,and economy.Binding policies with clearly defined targets and standar

89、ds can effectively accelerate the penetration of IPv6 among operators,service providers,and users within a short time frame.Among all stakeholders,operators are most prone to policy influence and play the largest role in driving the deployment at the network and users end.The active deployment of IP

90、v6/IPv6 Enhanced Innovations by the leading operators can have a substantial effect on the overall deployment rate in the national networks.Moreover,it secures the provision of an IPv6 network environment for content providers.The active deployment of IPv6/IPv6 Enhanced Innovations by the leading op

95、 Germany began the deployment process early and the active public sector has contributed significantly to the promotion of IPv6,Germany is at the forefront of IPv6 implementation globally.Implications The government should take the lead in deploying IPv6 and then encourage the private sector to make

96、 the appropriate change.As the digital economies grow,the modernization of digital infrastructures in major industries(e.g.,manufacturing)is projected to generate enormous demand for IPv6 capabilities.Therefore,governments should integrate IPv6 into industrial settings(such as smart manufacturing)an
