Abstract
This paper presents an analysis of IPv6 and its support protocols from the point of view of Information Assurance. It describes the IPv6 protocol suite, compares and contrasts it to the IPv4 protocol suite, and identifies IA issues that will arise during a migration of core networks from IPv4 to IPv6. It identifies decisions that will have to be made by policymakers, and provides recommendations on the best way to proceed.
