World IPv6 Day was a technical testing and publicity event in 2011 sponsored and organized by the Internet Society and several large content providers to test and promote public IPv6 deployment.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=About World IPv6 Day ); archived on June 23, 2011 (here ) by Webcite〕 Following the success of the 2011 test day, the Internet Society carried out a World IPv6 Launch day on June 6, 2012 which, instead of testing, planned to bring permanent IPv6 deployment for the products and services of the participants.〔(Internet Society: World IPv6 Launch on June 6, 2012, To Bring Permanent IPv6 Deployment )〕 == World IPv6 Day == World IPv6 Day was announced on January 12, 2011 with five anchoring companies: Facebook, Google, Yahoo, Akamai Technologies, and Limelight Networks.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Major Websites Commit to 24-Hour Test Flight for IPv6 ); archived on August 23, 2011 (here ) by Webcite〕 The event started at 00:00 UTC on June 8, 2011 and ended 23:59 the same day.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title= World IPv6 Day – How to Participate )〕 The main motivation for the event was to evaluate the real world effects of the IPv6 brokenness as seen by various synthetic tests. To this end, during World IPv6 Day major web companies and other industry players enabled IPv6 on their main websites for 24 hours. An additional goal was to motivate organizations across the industry – Internet service providers, hardware makers, operating system vendors and web companies – to prepare their services for IPv6, so as to ensure a successful transition from IPv4 as address space runs out The test primarily consisted of websites publishing AAAA records, which allow IPv6 capable hosts to connect using IPv6. Although Internet service providers (ISP) have been encouraged to participate, they were not expected to deploy anything active on that day, just increase their readiness to handle support issues. The concept was widely discussed at the 2010 Google IPv6 Conference.〔http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QkV9ZgRZvv4#t=1h01m28s〕 Many companies and organizations participated in the experiment, including the largest search engines, social networking websites and Internet backbone & content distribution networks.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title= World IPv6 Day – List of Participants )〕 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「World IPv6 Day and World IPv6 Launch Day」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
