Study
Case
Comparison
between
University
of
Southampton
and
University
Sains Malaysia
The comparison
of
IPv6
implementation
in
both
universities
is
on
the
final
goal
of
migration.
For
University
of
Southampton
the
goal
is
to
allow
IPv6-only
devices
to
be
introduced and to operate successfully using IPv6 transport and for the future
implementation
is
providing
IPv6
connectivity
for
remote
user
using
tunnel
broker
and
6to4 relay. While
in the University of Sains Malaysia (USM) the
main
goal
is
to
migrate
to IPv6 successfully in the economical way in term of cost of migration.
In USM the
migratio n
is
more
focused
in
the
cost
they
will
spend.
The
cost
is
divided
into four part; hardware cost, software cost, labor cost, and other cost. The four factors is
the key
factor that
needs to be considering
for USM
in order
to
migrate successfully. In
the 
other 
hand 
University 
of 
Southampton 
is 
more 
focused 
to 
migrate 
to 
IPv6
successfully using dual stack mechanism without have to worry about the cost of
implementation they would have to spend.
The similarities for both universities are:
 
Using dual-stack
mechanism
 
Lot of equipment (hardware & software) that doesn’t support IPv6
By looking at the similarities can be conclude that dual-stack
mechanism
is probably the
best strategy for deploying IPv6 in a campus network, but it not be 100% true because in
