Abstract
6NET is a three-year European project to demonstrate that continued growth of the Internet can be met using new IPv6 technology. The project has built a native IPv6-based network connecting sixteen countries in order to gain experience of IPv6 deployment and migration from existing IPv4-based networks. This is being used to extensively test a variety of new IPv6 services and applications, as well as interoperability with legacy applications.UCL is concerned with applications including enabling Globus, VoIP and AccessGrid for IPv6 operation. UCL is also involved in security and MobileIP work in the project.
