Global Routing for Ipv6
NSOC2011Global Routing for Ipv6
- Student: Atishay Jain
- Mentors: Tom Henderson and Mitch Watrous
Objective
This project provides the Dynamic Routing for Ipv6 in ns-3. Currently Ipv6 implements only Static Routing and List Routing. The Global Routing implementations of Ipv4 will be extended to support the Ipv6 support as well.
The Open Shortest Path First(OSPF) Dynamic Routing algorithm has only been implemented yet in ns-3.
The specifications for OSPF Global Routing(OSPFv3) is provided in RFCs: RFC 2740 and RFC 5340.
