:: Worldwide Interoperability on VoIP using IPv6

2007-03-07

The IPv6 Forum, along with Viagenie, Stealth Communications and CounterPath Solutions, today announced that a series of successful VoIP calls over IPv6 has been carried out, marking an important advancement in worldwide interoperability among VoIP technologies using IPv6.

The VoIP calls, connecting Viagenie in Canada and Consulintel in Spain, were conducted using the CounterPath eyeBeam(tm) softphone through the IPv6 version of Asterisk(r), ported by Viagenie, a consulting and R&D firm in advanced IP networking. The Asterisk-IPv6 server was located on Stealth Communications Voice Peering Fabric (VPF) network.

Asterisk is the most popular and extensible open source telephone system in the world, offering flexibility, functionality and features not available in advanced, high-end (high-cost) proprietary business systems. Asterisk is a complete IP PBX (private branch exchange) for businesses, and can be downloaded for free.

Asterisk-IPv6 shows the power of VoIPv6 by avoiding all issues regarding NAT traversal when using IPv4. The presence of NAT for VoIPv4 results in users issues, such as non-connecting calls, one-way audio, non-working DTMF. Asterisk-IPv6 solves all these issues and also brings, together with IPv6, true IP mobility, security and autoconfiguration of VoIPv6 phones, states Marc Blanchet, President of Viagenie.

Guidelines on how to handle IPv6 routes are needed for operators of networks, either providers or enterprises. This document is a followup on RFC2772 work but for the production IPv6 Internet. RFC2772 becomes historic.

:: Optical BGP (OBGP): InterAS lightpath provisioning
Marc Blanchet, Florent Parent, Bill St-Arnaud
2001-03-01

This work investigates inter-AS lightpath provisioning using BGP. BGP is currently deployed across the different autonomous systems on the Internet, so investigating how a BGP approach to provision lightpaths across autonomous systems is of great interest. This work proposes extensions to BGP to this end.
