Abstract

Central University of Venezuela is the main university of Venezuela and has approximately 60,000 students and 16,000 staff members. In the last few years, the university network has been expanded and currently about 8,000 computers are connected to the network. As a consequence of this expansion, users were suffering low throughput and network administrators were facing the shortage of public IPv4 addresses. To address the latter problem, NAT (Network Address Translation) has been deployed for several years at the university. However, NAT is a partial solution since it does not offer true end-to-end connections and, some Internet services that need to initiate connections from the outside do not work. In this paper, we present a solution to the two problems. Traffic congestion was alleviated with an update of the connection between the university and the major ISP, and a more rigorous filtering policy. To reduce the problem generated by the lack of public IPv4 addresses, we propose to deploy the new version of the Internet Protocol (IPv6) at the university. The basic idea is to migrate to IPv6 which offers a large space of IPv6 addresses and many other improvements over IPv4.
在委内瑞拉中央大学实施IPv6
委内瑞拉中央大学是委内瑞拉的主要大学,拥有约60,000名学生和16,000名教职员工。在过去的几年里,大学网络得到了扩展,目前约有8000台计算机连接到网络。由于这种扩展,用户的吞吐量很低,网络管理员面临公共IPv4地址短缺的问题。为了解决后一个问题,NAT(网络地址转换)已经在大学部署了几年。然而,NAT只是部分解决方案,因为它不能提供真正的端到端连接,而且一些需要从外部发起连接的Internet服务无法工作。在本文中,我们提出了解决这两个问题的方法。通过更新大学与主要ISP之间的连接,以及更严格的过滤策略,交通拥堵得到了缓解。为了减少由于缺乏公共IPv4地址而产生的问题,我们建议在大学部署新版互联网协议(IPv6)。基本的想法是迁移到IPv6,它提供了一个大的空间的IPv6地址和许多其他的改进比IPv4。
