The Department of Defense (DoD) Internet Protocol version 6 (IPv6) product certification program began as a mandate from the DoD's Assistant Secretary of Defense for Networks & Information Integration (ASD-NII) in 2005. The program mandates the Joint Interoperability Test Command (JITC) in Fort Huachuca, AZ, to test and certify IT products for IPv6 capability according to the Request For Comments (RFCs) outlined in the DoD's IPv6 Standards Profiles for IPv6 Capable Products. Once products are certified for special interoperability, they are added to the (DoD's Unified Capabilities Approved Products List (UC APL) for IPv6 ). This list is used by procurement offices in the DoD and the U.S. Federal agencies for ongoing purchases and acquisitions of IT equipment. As of February 2009, the DoD ceased the requirement for IPv6-only testing for certification and entry into the Unified Capabilities Approved Products List (UC APL). According to Kris Strance, DoD CIO IPv6 Lead, ("The testing of IPv6 is a part of all product evaluations — it is much broader in scope now." ) The (UC APL ) is now a single consolidated list of products that have completed Interoperability (IO) and Information Assurance (IA) certification. == DoD IPv6 standards == (The DoD IPv6 Standards Profiles for IPv6 Capable Products (DoD IPv6 Profile) ) is the singular “IPv6 Capable” definition in DoD. It is a document that lists the six agreed upon product classes (Host, Router, Layer 3 Switch, Network Appliance, Security Device, and Advanced Server) and their corresponding standards (RFCs). It lists each standard according to its level of requirement: * MUST: The standard is required to be implemented in the product now. * SHOULD: The standard is optional, but recommended for implementation. * SHOULD+: The standard is optional now, but will be required within a short period of time. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「DoD IPv6 product certification」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
