Abstract
As the deployment of second and third generation cellular networks
progresses, a large number of cellular hosts are being connected to
the Internet. Standardization organizations are making Internet
Protocol version 6 (IPv6) mandatory in their specifications.
However, the concept of IPv6 covers many aspects and numerous
specifications. In addition, the characteristics of cellular links
in terms of bandwidth, cost and delay put special requirements on how
IPv6 is used. This document considers IPv6 for cellular hosts that
attach to the General Packet Radio Service (GPRS), or Universal
Mobile Telecommunications System (UMTS) networks. This document also
lists basic components of IPv6 functionality and discusses some
issues relating to the use of these components when operating in
these networks.
