"Welcome to the v6 group. hope you can post more question to shape our internet future."

"Daniel, I must agree, problems exist at all levels of the specifications, implementation, architecture, deployment and operations. It is about the same with IPv4, the difference very few of us have been working with the IETF and Vendors to fix the…"

"James - You are correct, brute force scanning of IPv6 addresses is a Fail. I had a customer call me, to tell me that someone was bruteforce scanning their network. We calculated the speed of the scan and the location of his first host, making the…"

"I don't mean to suggest the security is inherently worse, only that when the mechanics of transport are changed, opportunities for exploitation may arise in certain applications. Even with only a larger address size, issues may arise within…"

"Given that there's no security in IPv4, how can IPv6 be worse? How much has to be changed in an application to make it work over IPv6, other than address size? I thought that one of the ideas behind protocol stacks was to isolate the effects of…"

"I'm afraid I would tend to disagree somewhat. Migrating the codebase of an application provides an opportunity to introduce new bugs and potentially new security flaws by logical extension. In practice I expect the most common security issue…"

"The exact same problems occur with IPv4 and other protocols. It has nothing to do with IPv6 or IPv4. Years ago, there were other protocols in common use, such as IPX and the old NetBIOS, among others. They've all experienced that sort of…"

"Good point. So it's quite unlikely that a problem/flaw will only exist in the ipv6 stack and not the ipv4 stack for the application layer. What about exploiting lower layers on the network then? Malformed headers intentional or unintentional…"

"Why should IPv6 be any different from IPv4 in this regard? IPv6 and IPv4 are simply the means of carrying data around the internet. The vulnerabilities are in the various servers and apps etc. One thing IPv6 has going for it is it's much harder…"

"Welcome to the forum"

"Hi Bruce, have you appointed any local partners to work on the china telecom to find out why the delay using gogo6?"

"Where are the cpe and server produced? Do they meet standard compliance for RoHS, energy saving...etc?"
