Case Study: IPv6 at Xtracta

xtracta_logoXtracta, a New Zealand based software development company, started deploying IPv6 in 2013. They were faced with the problem of acquiring new IPv4 address space, so decided to take the plunge into IPv6.

In August 2013, Jonathan Spence from Xtracta  prepared a document, entitled “Basics of IPv6”, that is meant to provide tips for IT administrators looking to get started with IPv6. It highlights key concerns regarding purchasing and design decisions – and provides a number of recommendations for people to consider when planning their own IPv6 rollout.


Please visit our IPv6 Case Studies page for more examples of IPv6 deployment. If you would like to get started with IPv6, please visit our IPv6 resources or begin with our “Start Here” page to help find resources most appropriate for your type of organization. If you have an IPv6 case study you think we should consider for inclusion on our site, please contact us – we are always looking for more!
