The prime objective of the IPv6 Forum and its members is to promote deployment and swifter uptake of the new Internet using the new Internet Protocol version 6 (IPv6) with support from industry, education, research communities and government agencies enabling equitable access to technology and knowledge.
The Turkish IPv6 Council has been created to extend to this key Internet community a strong voice and representation in the new Internet World to enable equal access to knowledge and education on New Generation Internet technologies and create momentum in deploying IPv6.
The IPv6 Council Turkey will attract key stakeholders from government, industry and academia to design an IPv6 roadmap and vision together for a timely adoption of the New Internet World based on IPv6. The Internet World has been using the Internet Protocol version 4 (IPv4) for the last two decades. Despite its tremendous success, IPv4 is showing signs of strain especially in its fast depleting IP address space and its growing security concerns. IPv6 preserves everything good in today's Internet, and adds much more, such as virtually unlimited IP address space to connect everyone and everything, stateless auto-configuration, seamless mobility, automated network management, mandated security and new optional service levels.
The Turkey IPv6 Council is a chapter of the IPv6 Forum dedicated to the advancement and dissemination of IPv6. Comprised of individual members, as opposed to corporate sponsors, its mission is to provide technical leadership and innovative thought for the successful integration of IPv6 into all facets of networking and telecommunications infrastructure, present and future. Please visit (under construction) About IPv6 Forum The IPv6 Forum is a world-wide consortium of international Internet service providers (ISPs) and National Research & Education Networks (NRENs), with a mission to promote IPv6 by improving market and user awareness, creating a quality and secure New Generation Internet and allowing world-wide equitable access to knowledge and technology. The key focus of the IPv6 Forum today is to provide technical guidance for the deployment of IPv6. IPv6 Summits are organized by the IPv6 Forum and staged in various locations around the world to provide industry and market with the best available information on this rapidly advancing technology.
