Customers of Vodafone<\/a>’s home broadband service, which is sold via FTTC<\/a> and FTTP<\/a> packages on Openreach<\/a> and CityFibre<\/a>’s national networks, may be pleased to learn that the ISP has finally confirmed to ISPreview – after some prodding – that they are starting to run a “limited trial<\/em>” of IPv6 internet addressing.<\/p>\n

Internet Protocol (IP) addresses help to connect your software and devices with others around the online world \u2013 like an ID number for your connection. Unfortunately, the IPv4 address space could only handle 4 billion addresses and that has long been exhausted (except for the resale of existing addresses), which means that in the future ISPs will need to use the new IPv6 standard in order to continue adding new connections without compromise.<\/p>\n

NOTE:<\/strong> CGNAT (Carrier-Grade NAT) \/ IP address sharing is a compromise that can sometimes cause problems.<\/div>\n

Sadly, the longer form IPv6 addresses are not directly compatible with older IPv4 addresses and so the two will need to be run side-by-side for many years to come (i.e. until the vast majority of the world has enabled IPv6), which creates some added costs and complications for ISPs that implement it. As a result, some providers have been dragging their feet on adoption for years, preferring instead to rely on their existing pool of IPv4s.<\/p>\n

Vodafone<\/a> have long been one of those remaining laggards, at least among the big ISPs. But all that just changed. The first sign that something was afoot came at the end of last month, when broadband customers reported experiencing an unusual routing bug that went away when users disabled the IPv6 setting on their routers (here<\/a>).<\/p>\n

At the time we speculated that this could actually be indicating preparations for a future IPv6 deployment, although Vodafone<\/a> initially declined to confirm such a plan. Since then a tiny number of customers have informed us that they were recently assigned a working IPv6 address, which we were able to verify. Furthermore, the provider’s ASN has started showing a clear increase in IPv6 activity (here<\/a>), and now they’ve finally acknowledged it.<\/p>\n

A Vodafone Spokesperson told ISPreview:<\/strong><\/p>\n

“We started a limited trial for the dual-stack connectivity for around two thousand customers between July and October, which is reflected on the ASN. “<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

The provider also confirmed to us that the “majority<\/em>” of their “new<\/em>” broadband customers “will be getting dual-stack i.e, IPv4 and IPv6 connectivity<\/em>” and, in addition to that, they’re “presently in the process of migrating existing customers to dual-stack<\/em>.”<\/p>\n

The migration process for this is likely to be a fairly gradual one and there’s still a question mark over the timescale involved, although it wouldn’t surprise us if the process took a few months (or possibly longer) to reach completion. The aforementioned bug shows precisely why it\u2019s important not to rush such deployments.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
