How badly will IPv6 screw up telecommunications? Where are the areas of telecom that will see the greatest impact? And what can be done to fix it? How badly will IPv6 screw up telecommunications? Where are the areas of telecom that will see the greatest impact? And what can be done to fix it? With the recent buzz around World IPv6 Day and the exhaustion of top-level IPv4 address allocations, organizations are starting to seriously look at exactly what is involved with migrating to IPv6... and asking questions about what this means for all their VoIP and Unified Communications systems. Given that the reality is that a "IPv6-only" world is a distant future, questions are particularly being asked around how those telecommunications systems will work during the transition period from IPv4 to IPv6. In this session, Voxeo's Dan York will explore where IPv6 and telecom play nice together and where there are serious minefields that may restrict telecom from working over IPv6 In this session, Voxeo's Dan York will explore where IPv6 and telecom play nice together and where there are serious minefields that may restrict telecom from working over IPv6
