Abstract:

Despite the fact that IPv6 was developed 30 years ago, its deployment within higher education institutions worldwide is still slow. While many have started transitioning from IPv4 to IPv6, a large number of them have deferred the transition due to the time needed to complete the transition, budget implications, and security issues. The main problem is how to deploy IPv6 without disrupting the teaching activities of academic departments. This paper introduces a phased framework for deploying IPv6 at the university campus networks of higher education institutions. The framework consists of three phases: preparation and assessment, perimeter network, and internal network. In addition to an independent phase to manage the security issues, a Venn diagram has been created to compare the proposed framework with a state-of-art framework. The results show that the proposed framework retains high value as a comprehensive IPv6 deployment framework at higher education institutions.
