    Dual Stack Network

    Why Should I Care?


    The evolution of the Internet to IPv6 will directly affect enterprise customers because they will have to communicate with their customers, partners, and suppliers over an IPv6 network. In order to ensure business continuity and future growth, all organizations need to carefully plan for coexistence between IPv4 and IPv6. Also, as IPv6 propagates, early adopters can deliver innovative platforms, applications, and services that take advantage of the technical possibilities of IPv6 A combination of both native IPv4 and IPv6, better known as dual stack, is the recommended coexistence strategy for enterprise networks

    Cisco Solution for the Campus


    All Layer 3 switches run dual stack:

    Dual stack (IPv4 and IPv6) from the data center aggregation layer to the core layer Dual stack (IPv4 and IPv6) firewall at the data center edge Cisco Nexus 7000, Nexus 5000, or Cisco Nexus 2000 running Cisco NX-OS, Cisco Catalyst 4900M, or Cisco Catalyst 4948E Cisco ASA Adaptive Security Appliance

    Dual stack (IPv4 and IPv6) from the access layer to the distribution layer, including first-hop security Dual stack (IPv4 and IPv6) from the distribution layer to the core layer Cisco Catalyst 6500, Catalyst 4500, and Catalyst 3750, 3560 and 2960 running Cisco IOS Software

    What Is It?
    Dual stack means that devices are able to run IPv4 and IPv6 in parallel. It allows hosts to simultaneously reach IPv4 and IPv6 content, so it offers a very flexible coexistence strategy.

    Cisco Solution for the WAN


    There are two major deployment options:

    Benefits

    Native dual stack does not require any tunneling mechanisms on internal networks Both IPv4 and IPv6 run independent of each other Dual stack supports gradual migration of endpoints, networks, and applications

    Dual Stack Server

    The enterprise deploys and operates its own WAN solution across a Layer 2 or Layer 3 connection provided by a service provider. The enterprise WAN is managed by a service provider. The customer premises equipment (CPE) could be managed or not, depending on the service.

    In both cases, if the WAN network supports IPv6, then dual stack is again the recommend option. If not, then the solution is to use tunnels to connect the IPv6 islands over IPv4. The Cisco ASR 1000 Aggregation Services Router and Cisco Integrated Services Routers Generation 2 (ISR G2) routers support a wide variety of dynamic and static tunnels that carry IPv6 over IPv4 or Multiprotocol Label Switching (MPLS) infrastructures, such as Dynamic Multipoint VPN (DMVPN), IPv6 VPN Provider Edge Router (6VPE), LISP (Locator/ID Separator Protocol) or Layer 3 VPN over multipoint generic routing encapsulation (L3VPNomGRE).

    Cisco IPv6 Implementation Service


    When you are ready to implement IPv6, Cisco can support testing to validate that your network is ready and provide implementation consulting services.


    Deploying IPv6 in the WAN

    Identify and assess the highest priority IPv6-critical areas in the network to determine IPv6 design scope. Develop a design that enables IPv6 to be introduced without disrupting the IPv4 network. Test and implement IPv6 in pilot mode, then extend over time into production deployment. Repeat these phases for the next IPv6-critical areas in the network through ongoing optimization.

    Cisco Network Optimization Service


    After IPv6 has been deployed, assessment, design support, and testing of subsequent areas are handled through ongoing optimization.

    Service Provider Backbone

    Our proven process enables organizations to proactively budget time, money, and resources and prioritize critical areas of the network.
