FW: [ipv6-wg] 2010 IPv6 Deployment Monitoring Survey Now Underway

Thu Jun 24 19:00:14 UTC 2010

ARIN encourages its community to participate in the 2010 Global IPv6 
Deployment Monitoring Survey being conducted by GNKS Consult and TNO and 
sponsored by the RIPE NCC.

The survey is now available at:

http://www.surveymonkey.com/s/IPv6deploymentmonitoring2010

The survey will close on 1 July 2010.

All five Regional Internet Registries have committed to soliciting 
participation in this survey in order to compile the most complete 
global IPv6 deployment data possible.

The survey results will provide a better understanding of current IPv6 
deployment, and what still needs to be done to ensure the Internet 
community is ready for the widespread adoption of IPv6. ARIN/CAIDA 
performed a similar survey in 2008, and it was repeated in 2009 in the 
RIPE and APNIC regions. The 2010 survey will allow for some comparison 
of progress, which will be extremely valuable in determining the 
necessary next steps.

The goal is to establish a comprehensive view of present IPv6 
penetration and future plans for IPv6 deployment. The survey is composed 
of 23 questions and can be completed in about 15 minutes. For those 
without IPv6 allocations or assignments, or who have not yet deployed 
IPv6, the questions will be fewer in number.

Results of the IPv6 Deployment Monitoring Survey will be made public in 
the fall. All participants that provide their name and contact 
information on the survey form will receive the draft survey analysis 
when available. Please also indicate if you are willing to share 
additional data with the TNO and GNKS Consult IPv6 Deployment Monitoring 
team.

Any questions concerning the survey itself should be addressed to
