Subject: [IPv6crawler-wg] Presentation at the Internet Society's INET London
Message-ID: <4CA8D7AB.6000705@gih.com>

 Hello folks,

as some of you may be aware, the Internet Society had an INET conference
in London last Wednesday (29th September 2010). The event was organised
jointly by the Internet Society and the local ISOC England chapter in
which I am a leading team member.
Web site on:
http://www.isoc.org/isoc/conferences/inet/10/london.shtml

ISOC presented four scenarios possible, 3 of them bad, and one of them
good, for the possible future of the Internet:  
http://www.isoc.org/tools/blogs/scenarios/

I had the opportunity to briefly explain our project, so I put together
a short presentation, which I enclose here as an attachment.

A video of the presentation was made by Rex - and apologies for the
sound, but you can see how well the presentation was received, judging
from the applause. I have since received many enquiries for explanations
about the project, and am pointing more and more people to the Web site.

U.S. Government Announces Timetable for IPv6 Deployment

Internet Society's Leslie Daigle participates IPv6 workshop panel chaired by
U.S. CTO Aneesh Chopra

30 September 2010--The Internet Society welcomed the announcement this week by
White House CIO Vivek Kundra of specific milestones for U.S. government
agencies in their deployment of IPv6, the next generation of Internet
Protocol, as it provides additional momentum behind an important evolution of
the Internet. The Internet Society believes governments have key roles to play
in raising awareness and encouraging the deployment of IPv6, and that
government leadership can foster IPv6 deployment more generally.

Speaking on a panel chaired by US CTO Aneesh Chopra during the workshop at
which the announcement was made, the Internet Society's Chief Internet
Technology Officer Leslie Daigle observed that IPv6 deployment is critical to
the Internet's continued success as a global platform for unprecedented
innovation and development, and to the future of organizations that use the
Internet.

Daigle said, "Just as any business that uses the Internet should have a
strategy and a plan for deploying IPv6, the Internet Society believes that a
clear plan for deploying IPv6 will help governments continue to provide
effective Internet-based services for their citizens."

The announced deployment timetable extends the U.S. Government's efforts in
promoting IPv6, and adds to IPv6 deployment initiatives being undertaken by
other governments, such as the European Commission, Japan and Australia.

Details about the Internet Society's efforts to promote and support the
deployment of IPv6 can be found at:

http://InternetSociety.org/ipv6

Information Administration IPv6 workshop and the announcement is available at:

Internet Society Urges Action to Safeguard Internet Future

Global organisation calls on users to act to keep the Internet open and
transparent at Internet futures event

29 September 2010, LONDON -- The Internet Society urged Internet users around
the world to become active participants in the effort to guarantee that the
Internet remains an open and transparent platform for communication and
innovation.

At its INET conference on the impact of the Internet revolution on business in
London today, the Internet Society warned all users that they would ignore
future Internet opportunities, threats and challenges at their peril. To
illustrate the potential for a future Internet that is very different than the
one we use today, Internet Society launched *four scenarios that highlight
contrasting paths along which the Internet could develop based on economic,
political and social forces emerging today.

Of the four Internet scenarios, the Internet Society advocates The Common
Pool, in which the Internet continues to be built on open technologies and
processes, fostering permission-less innovation, economic growth, and social
development.

The conference heard EU Digital Agenda Commissioner Neelie Kroes endorse
this approach with a resounding message that fast, cheap, open Internet
access is crucial for all business and other users. "The Internet is
increasingly a cornerstone for business and communication around the world
today. We often regard it as a utility, but we would be foolhardy to take its
unique and invaluable characteristics for granted," said Frederic Donck,
director of the Internet Society's European Regional Bureau.

The Internet Society said it is up to users to act now to ensure that the
future development of the Internet takes a direction that is in the best
interests of everyone.

Internet Society Asia Bureau Participates in WEF Meeting

Rajnesh Singh, Internet Society's Regional Bureau Manager for Asia, was
invited to participate in the World Economic Forum's Annual Meeting of New
Champions 2010 in Tianjin, China. Referred to as the "Summer Davos", the
meeting is the foremost global business gathering in Asia and was introduced
in 2007. The annual meeting is held in close collaboration with the People's
Republic of China and with the personal support of Premier Wen Jiabao.

The meeting theme "Driving Growth through Sustainability" explored issues
fundamental for global, national and business competitiveness, under four main
pillars:

+ Improving Competitiveness through Science and Technology
+ Creating New Value from Business Models and for Future Markets
+ Facilitating Economic and Social Change
+ Designing Effective Global, Industry and Regional Solutions

Singh was a panelist in a session titled "Maximising Cloud Computing" where he
provided commentary on some current issues with cloud computing and suggested
some approaches which could help build user confidence in the cloud. Singh was
also part of a private session on ICT and Eco-sustainability.

The Meeting brought together over 1,500 industry, government and thought
leaders from around 90 countries and provided a good opportunity to profile
the Internet Society and its works across a range of stakeholders.

Community Grants Programme Project Showcase: IPv6 Crawler

Contributed by: Olivier Crepin-Leblond

ISOC England Chapter was awarded a Community Grants Programme award in
November 2009, for the design and implementation of an "IPv6 crawler," a
computer and its software that would crawl through the DNS at pre-set
intervals in order to detect, for example, IPv6 DNS servers and IPv6 compliant
Web servers, SMTP mailers, and NTP servers. The search for project partners
led to a link-up with Nile University (Egypt) where professors and their
research assistants got to grips with IPv6, and started the task of writing
the software required in the project, as part of their experience. In the
meantime, the London team of partners built and installed two computers and a
router at Telehouse East, one of the UK's most connected facilities. One
computer was set-up as a crawler, and one as a Web server and information
storage, both connected to the Internet backbone via Dual Stack IPv4/IPv6.

The list of domains tested consisted initially of the world's 1 million most
popular Web sites, as referenced by alexa.com. After a cleaning up process,
about 980 000 domains supported by nearly 5.6 million hosts were tested.

The results showed how little dual stack IPv4/IPv6 was supported by major Web
sites. Without content, it is no wonder that the current volume of IPv6
traffic on the Internet is so low! The results were saved in text files and
SQL databases were created for easy interrogation. The Web site found on:
http://www.ipv6matrix.org/ is an example of a front end which interrogates
those databases, and displays results using the Google Charts APIs.
Ultimately, we plan to document the SQL database structure, so as to allow for
other projects to retrieve data directly from the databases.

Currently, a full scan of all TLDs in the database takes just over a month,
and results are stored for future analysis. It is hoped that a growth trend of
IPv6 will be seen in a few months. In the long term, the data collected will
enable researchers to find out exactly how major new technologies, such as the
migration to IPv6, spread on the Internet, and will answer the questions
relating to finding the early and late adopters of new technology.

In the short term, the maps show a snapshot of real world IPv6 penetration
data at a glance.

At this early alpha (or beta) stage, we would look forward to any feedback
regarding the data we collect, and for any bugs to be pointed out for the Team
to resolve. On the question of accuracy of results, we have found that results
are less accurate in TLD sample sizes under 900 domains. Larger TLD sample
sizes increase accuracy. We therefore appeal to any Registry whose zone data
sample size is less than 1000 domains to contact us, should they wish to
provide a wider sample of input domains for the zone they are responsible for.

Experiential Component added to Internet Society's Next Generation Leader
Programme

Two NGL alumni to attend OECD Technology Foresight Forum in Paris to discuss
Smart ICTs and Green Growth

The Internet Society is expanding its Next Generation Leaders (NGL) programme
to include a pilot fellowship to the forthcoming Organization for Economic
Co-operation and Development (OECD) Technology Foresight Forum. Two NGL
alumni, Vinayak Hegde and Rafid Fatani, have been selected to participate.

The Internet Society's Next Generation Leaders programme blends coursework,
practical experience and mentorship to help prepare young professionals from
around the world to become the next generation of Internet technology, policy,
and business leaders. New components are added as opportunities present
themselves not only to benefit the participating individuals but also to bring
people with diverse backgrounds and perspectives to the discussions.

The annual OECD event brings together policymakers from member and non-member
governments, business, civil society, and the Internet technical community to
discuss and identify the opportunities and challenges that technical
developments present to the Internet Economy. The Foresight forums are
designed to enable constructive dialogue between these key stakeholders on key
Internet issues that have previously included RFID, Next Generation Networks,
Participative Web, Smart ICT and Cloud computing.

"The Internet with its global communications networks and richness of data
enables entirely new ways of addressing environmental challenges. Individuals
and organizations are increasingly using innovative ICT applications for
greater sustainability. But some issues remain to be addressed, e.g. relating
to co-ordination between ICT and environmental policy communities, and will be
addressed at this OECD Forum", says Arthur Mickoleit, author of the new OECD
report "Greener and Smarter. ICTs, the environment and climate change".

As the coordinator of the Internet Technical Advisory Committee (ITAC) to the
OECD, the Internet Society has participated in past editions of the OECD
Foresight Forum.

The 2010 OECD Foresight Forum will focus on Smart ICTs and Green Growth and
will be held in Paris on 29 September. As this is a pilot fellowship, the
Internet Society invited participants of its other NGL components to apply.
The two successful applications were submitted by:

+ Vinayak Hegde (India): Currently working as a Lead Architect at Inmobi, a
leading mobile Ad network, Hegde works on designing multi-datacenter networks,
large-scale data-processing platforms and high-performance ad servers. Prior
to Inmobi, he built network performance measurement tools at Akamai. His
fields of expertise are large-scale networks, large-scale data processing and
programming languages.

+ Rafid Fatani (Saudia Arabia/UK): Fatani has been involved in the IT industry
in a variety of roles since 1991. He is the founder and director of
SASIconsult - Saudi Arabian Strategic Internet Consultancy, a leading Saudi
ICT consultancy that offers an innovative portfolio of Internet related
research and services. As well as being involved in the industry through the
company, Fatani is in the final stages of his interdisciplinary PhD at the
University of Exeter in the United Kingdom, looking at Global Internet
governance and its implications on state actor policy formation.

The NGL programme is sponsored by organizations including: Nominet Trust and
the Association Fran?aise pour le Nommage Internet en Coop?ration (AFNIC) and
the European Commission.

A final reminder for our IPv6 Summit in Melbourne on October 18-19, which will
be preceded by an IPv6 workshop on 17 October. This year the
Summit "IPv6? You're Standing In it" focusses on the real life experiences of
implementing IPv6 nationally and internationally. See
http://www.ipv6.org.au/summit.

We also held a meeting of members to decide on this year's policy priorities
which are:

+ NBN and development of the Internet 
+ Online security and social responsibility 
+ Open Internet (Net neutrality, open standards, no misrepresentation of
walled gardens) 
+ Privacy and digital identity 
+ Transition to IPv6 and Any to any connectivity (any device to any device, no
NATs, helping corporates understand that firewalls can keep the corporate
network safe even though the internal addresses are globally addressable under
IPv6) 
+ new gTLDs and associated issues

The Internet Society Australia Chapter was very pleased to participate in this
year's PacINET, the premier Internet conference for South Pacific nations.
President Tony Hill participated in many of the sessions, including IPv6
training and strategic discussions about the Internet Society in the Pacific.
On behalf of the IPv6 Forum he chaired a full day workshop on recent
international developments in IPv6. We also continue participation in the
Safer Internet Group. With the probable demise of the Government's filtering
policy (now that we have a minority Government with both the independent
parties and opposition opposing the policy), the Group is changing focus
towards education strategies for a safer Internet.

La experiencia de INET Montevideo

El pasado 2 de Julio de 2010, tuvo lugar en Montevideo el evento INET de la
Internet Society, organizado por el Cap?tulo ISOC Uruguay, en el que
participaron unas 150 personas procedentes del sector privado, p?blico,
acad?mico, etc. Entre ellas contamos tanto con participantes como disertantes
de relevancia en el ?mbito nacional e internacional.

Para nuestro incipiente Cap?tulo ISOC Uruguay, este evento signific? la
presentaci?n del cap?tulo y al mismo tiempo su primer actividad de relevancia.
La planificaci?n del mismo insumi? numerosas y largas horas de reuniones,
definiciones, consultas y decisiones que hubiese sido imposible desarrollar
sin la ayuda de muchos miembros del Cap?tulo, organizaciones, empresas y el
apoyo de ISOC y en particular de la Gerente de Eventos de ISOC, del Director
de la Oficina Regional para Am?rica Latina de ISOC y del Presidente del
Directorio de ISOC (Sra. Carmen Dell'Erba, Sr. Sebasti?n Bellagamba y Sr. Ra?l
Echeberr?a respectivamente).

Present? un desaf?o adicional e inesperado, cuando finalmente la fecha fijada
(e inmodificable) para el evento coincide con el partido de f?tbol entre las
selecciones de Uruguay y Ghana que defini? el pasaje a la semifinal de la Copa
del Mundo Sud?frica 2010.

Las actividades se desarrollaron en el hotel Sheraton Montevideo, en una
jornada a la que no le falt? nada. Comenzamos a la hora 9:00 con una sala
colmada de p?blico, el cual estuvo muy atento y participativo durante todo el
evento. El miso culmin? con un almuerzo mientras disfrut?bamos (algunos
sufrimos un poco), en dos pantallas gigantes, del emblem?tico e incre?ble
partido por los cuartos de final de la Copa del Mundo.

La agenda del mismo fue orientada a todo p?blico, sin entrar en aspectos muy
t?cnicos y abordando temas y problem?tica incipiente y de actualidad para en
pa?s y la regi?n en lo relativo a Internet y alineados con objetivos de ISOC.
As?, los temas tratados fueron: Bienvenida y Presentaci?n del Cap?tulo; El
Ecosistema de Gesti?n de Internet; Gobernanza en Internet, principales debates
en el marco del Foro de Gobernanza en Internet (IGF); Gobernanza en Internet,
metas e indicadores; Neutralidad de la Red; Nuevo Marco Jur?dico para la
Sociedad de la Informaci?n; Aspectos de Seguridad en Internet; y el cierre del
evento analizando ?Hacia donde vamos? con el Cap?tulo Uruguay.

Mis felicitaciones y agradecimiento a los miembros del Directorio del Cap?tulo
y en general a todos los miembros del cap?tulo, personalidades invitadas,
organizaciones, empresas privadas, entidades gubernamentales y organismos e
individuos en general que brindaron su apoyo, tiempo y dedicaci?n para hacer
posible este evento en un marco de camarader?a y fraternidad, tratando temas
tan relevantes como los que formaron parte de la agenda.

Saludando calurosamente a todos y esperando continuar generando entre todos,
instancias de participaci?n y proyectos, en este Cap?tulo Uruguay de ISOC,
alineados con los ideales y principios generales de ISOC.

 Hello folks,

whilst at the INET London conference, I have received feedback on a
recent project, whereas some European iXPs have noted slightly higher
than average UDP traffic on their networks. Whilst not 100% sure about
this, I suspect that this might be caused by our IPv6 Matrix Crawler
which we are running pro-bono to track the spread of IPv6 content.

Having officially announced some of its results at the conference which
was hosted in London by the Internet Society on 29th September 2010, I
wanted to announce this here too:

ISOC England was awarded a Community Grants Programme award in November
2009, for the design and implementation of an ?IPv6 crawler,? a computer
and its software that would crawl through the DNS at pre-set intervals
in order to detect, for example, IPv6 DNS servers and IPv6 compliant Web
servers, SMTP mailers, and NTP servers.
The search for project partners led to a link-up with Nile University
(Egypt) where professors and their research assistants got to grips with
IPv6, and started the task of writing the software required in the
project, as part of their experience.
In the meantime, the London team of partners built and installed two
servers and a router at Telehouse East, one of the UK's most connected
facilities. One server was set-up as a crawler, and one as a Web
server and information storage, both connected to the Internet backbone
via Dual Stack IPv4/IPv6.

The list of domains tested consisted initially of the world's 1 million
most popular Web sites, as referenced by alexa.com. After a cleaning up
process, about 980 000 domains supported by nearly 5.6 million hosts
were tested periodically.

Results were surprising, and showed how little dual stack IPv4/IPv6 was
supported by major Web sites. Without content, it is no wonder that the
current volume of IPv6 traffic on the Internet is so low! The results
were saved in text files and SQL databases were created for easy
interrogation.
The Web site found on: http://www.ipv6matrix.org/ is an example of a
front end which interrogates those databases, and displays results using
the Google Charts APIs. Ultimately, we plan to document the SQL database
structure, so as to allow for other projects to retrieve data directly
from the databases.

Currently, a full scan of all TLDs in the database takes just over a
month, and results are stored for future analysis. It is hoped that a
growth trend of IPv6 will be seen in a few months. In the long term, the
data collected will enable researchers to find out exactly how major new
technologies, such as the migration to IPv6, spread on the Internet, and
will answer the questions relating to finding the early and late
adopters of new technology.

In the short term, the maps show a snapshot of real world IPv6
penetration data at a glance, and detailed results are also made
available, helped by a system of user-configured filters.

A presentation of the September 2010 data for Europe and Asia was made
at the INET London conference, its deck of slides downloadable from:
http://www.slideshare.net/ocl999/ipv6-matrix-exec-summary

One final note, before you ask: we have received 9 enquiries (out of 
980 000 domains) about Firewalls erroneously detecting a port attack 
of some sort during the scanning process.
The only ports which the Crawler tests connectivity to are:
- Port 25 (SMTP)
- Port 53 (DNS)
- Port 80 (HTTP)
- Port 443 (HTTPS)
- Port 123 (NTP) 

This generates an insignificant amount of traffic in the order of
a few bytes only. Let me make this clear: we are not performing port scans.

At this early alpha (or beta) stage, we would look forward to any
feedback regarding the data we collect, and for any bugs to be pointed
out for the Team to resolve. On the question of accuracy of results, we
have found that results are less accurate in TLD sample sizes under 900
domains. Larger TLD sample sizes increase accuracy. We therefore appeal
to any Registry whose zone data sample size is less than 1000 domains to
contact us, should they wish to provide a wider sample of input domains
for the zone they are responsible for.

Dear colleagues,

The UK ISOC chapter together with the Nile University in Egypt have 
developed an IPv6 crawler and matrix. You can now find the description 
including a pointer to the tool and the maps showing the results on RIPE 
Labs:

Subject: [IPv6crawler-wg] Presentation at INET Tunis
Message-ID: <4CBEC3EC.7000507@gih.com>

 Hello everyone,

just to let you know that I shall be presenting a long version of the
Powerpoint presentation at ISOC's INET Tunis on 28 October 2010:
http://www.isoc.org/isoc/conferences/inet/10/tunis.shtml

This has a specific African taste to it, since this INET is based in
Africa. I gather than an Egyptian delegation will also be attending.
Please find enclosed, the latest version of the presentation which I'll
be making in French. I have been asked to add a few more slides, in case
I have more time to expand on IPv6.

Kind regards,

Olivier
