Abstract :
New networking challenges are arising in home networks which will host advanced services in the future. In this paper, we look at home networks as they are managed today, and attempt to identify difficulties that will arise in future when advanced usage is desired. We discuss how IPv6 and standardised IPv6 transition technologies assist in deploying advanced services from home networks. Our practical experiences and experiments with bringing IPv6 to home networks using 6 to 4, building an experimental prototype home gateway device, as well as deploying image sharing, data and streaming audio services from these networks are detailed
