Abstract
IPv6, as the next generation Internet protocol, is supported by most manufacturers, but the deployment speed is very slow. In this paper, we analyze the problems in the actual use of IPv4-IPv6 dual stack in WLAN, find out problems of operating costs, security and user privacy, conclude that IPv4-IPv6 dual stack prevents the transition from IPv4 to IPv6. In order to solve these problems in IPv6 deployment on WLAN, we propose an IPv6-only WLAN structure combined with IVI. Next, we analyze the modules of our structure from the aspects of authentication methods and IP address assignment, choose the most reasonable method, and consider security and user privacy issues. Finally, we deployed our solution on the Tsinghua campus network and provide services to more than 30,000 teachers and students. Our solution helps speed up the deployment of the IPv6 networks.
