Freenet6's TSP is a new initiative launched by Viagenie, a private
|
|
company in Canada involved in IPv6 since 1996, to facilitate a
|
|
faster deployment of an Internet IPv6. Internet is world-wide
|
|
deployed over IPv4, therefore this project has the main goal of
|
|
deploying IPv6 at a larger scale by using configured tunnels.
|
|
|
|
Configured tunnel is a transitional method standardized by the IETF
|
|
to use IPv6 in coexistence with IPv4 by encapsulating IPv6 packets
|
|
over IPv4. Any host already connected to Internet with IPv4 and
|
|
having an IPv6 stack could establish link to Internet IPv6.
|
|
|
|
Freenet6, developed by Viagenie in 1999-2000, was the first public
|
|
tunnel server service and one of the most used in the world to
|
|
delegate automatically one single IPv6 address to any host already
|
|
connected to an IPv4 network over configured tunnel simply by
|
|
filling a Web form and running a script. Freenet6's TSP is representing
|
|
another very important step to accelerate the deployment at large
|
|
scale of IPv6 to everyone on the net.
