Promotion of IPv6 Deployment
China Future Internet Engineering Center
The internet is one of the greatest inventions in human history, and the Internet Protocol version 6 is a major upgrade. IPv6 has truly realized the notion that "every grain of sand on the Earth can have an IP address", so that more users and devices can access the internet, making the interconnection between everything and the metaverse possible.
In recent years, traditional internet address resources have been exhausted, and the world is in a critical period of upgrade and evolution toward IPv6. In order to accelerate the global scale deployment of IPv6 and promote the process of global digitalization, four industry experts, including Liu Dong, director of the China Future Internet Engineering Center, jointly made a proposal to promote the deployment of IPv6.
The proposal points out that IPv6 offers better flexibility, security and efficiency, and will deliver faster internet speeds, more secure internet access and stronger privacy protection capabilities. It advocates the global community to increase the integration and innovation of IPv6 technology, accelerating the practical application of pure IPv6.
The World Internet Conference (WIC) was established as an international organization on July 12, 2022, headquartered in Beijing, China. It was jointly initiated by Global System for Mobile Communication Association (GSMA), National Computer Network Emergency Response Technical Team/Coordination Center of China (CNCERT), China Internet Network Information Center (CNNIC), Alibaba Group, Tencent, and Zhijiang Lab.
