Abstract

The inevitability of IPv6 has come to fore. How to resolve the problem of IP address registration has been a great challenge for network management. The existing solution uses manual registration mechanism, not suitable for dealing with massive IPv6 addresses. Based on the Extensible Provisioning Protocol, we propose an “EPP-IP” mechanism to achieve a flexible and automatic registration management for hierarchical IP addresses. It is compatible with the current address allocation strategy, and can be continued to extend as needed. Complete and consistent registration information will contribute greatly to other network security research.
