| Popis: | Currently, the exponential growth of the Internet and the limitations of IPv4 (the current version of the Internet Protocol) in terms of lack of IP addresses, mobility and security make the transition from IPv4 to IPv6 more and more a necessity. There are even some operators who finished off their IPv4 addresses store and migrated to IPv6. In addition, IPv6 routing protocols have to adapt to facilitate this transition and the deployment of IPv6 as well. Moreover, the selection of the best routing protocol among the available ones is a critical task, which depends on one hand on the network requirements and its deployment and on the other hand on some performance parameters of different applications in real-time. Routing is a process necessary to select the optimal path in order to allow a number of peripherals to communicate with each other even in different networks. That can be done dynamically by using routing protocols, which rely on different algorithms. In this article, we will present a comparative study of dynamic IPv6 routing protocols, namely RIPng (Routing Information Protocol next generation), EIGRPv6 (IPv6 Enhanced Interior Gateway Routing Protocol), OSPFv3 (Open Shortest Path First version 3), IS-IS (Intermediate System to Intermediate System), and BGP4+ (IPv6 Border Gateway Protocol version 4). We classified these protocols into two categories and compared them. We described the involved protocols for each case, their operating principles, their routing algorithms, their deployment limits, and the possible configurations as well. This study is not only intended to compare these categories to each other, but also to present and describe for each of them the involved protocols, their operating principles, their deployment limits in order to enlighten and help customers who want to use or deploy the IPv6 to choose the suitable IPv6 routing protocol according to their needs. |
