The world's first!  H3C is the first to pass the "IPv6+Ready 2.0 & SRv6 Ready" certification


Under the guidance of the "cloud intelligence native" strategy, New H3C Group will continue to increase the R&D and innovation of IPv6+ emerging technologies, and work with partners to promote the integration and innovative development of IPv6 and various fields, so as to fully empower The construction of a new generation of high-quality networks.

Recently, a number of high-end core routers and WAN controllers of H3C Group, a subsidiary of Tsinghua Unigroup, have successfully passed the "IPv6+ Ready 2.0 & SRv6 Ready" test certification established by China Institute of Information and Communications Technology Taier Laboratory, becoming the first company in the world to pass this test certification .  This is another milestone in H3C's continuous exploration of IPv6 technology innovation, which is of great significance for promoting the evolution and innovation of IPv6 technology and promoting the deep integration of IPv6 and various industr ies.

As an authoritative third-party testing organization in China, China Academy of Information and Communications Technology Thiel Laboratory has a profound accumulation in IPv6 technology research and standard formulation. In this "IPv6  + Ready 2.0 & SRv6 Ready" certification test, H3C Group's core products CR19000 , CR18000, CR16000-F, CR16000-M series routers, and AD-WAN control With full IPv6 features and rich SDN features, the device has successfully passed multiple tests such as SRv6 basic capabilities, G-SRv6, network s licing, iFIT flow detection , BIERv6, SFC, etc., and fully meets the requirements of IPv6+2.0 related protocol specifications. The large-scale deployment and application of IPv6 in various industries.

Having been deeply involved in the network field for more than 20 years, New H3C Group adheres to technological innovation as the core driving force, and has actively promoted the innovative practice of IPv6 next-generation Internet technology for many years. At present, all net work products are capable of supporting IPv6 protocol and application deployment. At the same time Achieved fruitful results in a number of IPv6+ core technology fields.

● End-to-end network slicing: H3C is committed to the practice and innovation of application experience assurance, and provides users with multiple A private network service deploys office, video and other services in different network slices, so that user services do not affect each other and fully guarantees the service application experience.  In terms of network slicing standard innovation, H3C and operators innovatively proposed a source address-based Slice ID slicing solution to provide access, aggregation, and core end-to-end network slicing capabilities .

● iFIT follow-up detection: In order to meet the needs of intelligent operation and maintenance such as business visibility and realize accurate network perception, H3C has deployed in advance the follow-up detection technology, and took the lead in completing the commercial use of Zhejiang Mobile's follow-up detection technology, and proposed DOH-based follow-through Detect the scheme and form an IETF draft.  With the characteristics of high precision and fast fault location, the flow detection technology has the conditions for large-scale commercial deployment , and will further accelerate the popularity of IPv6+ technology.

● BIERv6 technology: In order to solve the problems of small scale of traditional multicast applications, slow fault convergence, and slow response to multicast joins, H3C has innovatively implemented BIERv6 multicast technology. BIERv6 adopts the bit ind ex replication technology. The intermediate nodes of  the network do not need to perceive the state of the multicast flow, but only need to guide the multicast service to copy and forward according to the bit index, which greatly improves the reliability, flexibility and large-scale deployment capability of the multicast service.

● SFC practice: Based on the SRv6 SFC service chain application, H3C provides flexible resource allocation capabilities for operators and public cloud service providers, and can dynamically respond to tenant needs. At the same time, H3C and  Guangdong Unicom's new cloud network security solution based on SRv6 service chain provides Service SID as a Service capability, quickly links multiple types of network, security and cloud resource functions through a SID List, and realizes distributed elasticity of security capabilities deliver.

● Deterministic network: H3C uses the programmable capability of SRv6 and the deterministic queue forwarding of RCQF to construct the deterministic transmission capability of the network, and undertakes the construction of the world's first deterministic network, with the longest span of 160 0 kilometers and the largest jitter Of deterministic traffic Less than 15us, the main performance indicators have reached the international leading level.

New H3C Group has not only completed the test certification of "IPv6+ Ready 2.0 & SRv6 Ready", but is also actively investing and researching on IPv6+3.0. For example, in terms of APN6,  facing the diversification of industry application scenarios, H3C actively participated in the formulation of IETF's APN6 standard, and gradually became a key force in the formulation and promotion of standards in the ICT field, laying the foundation for the evolution of highly intelligent networks in the IPv6+3.0 stage.

With the forward-looking investment in multiple fields of IPv6, New H3C Group is now able to provide global IPv6+ solutions, and builds a unified IPv6+ technology base for WAN, campus networks and data centers, which is fully used in government, Internet, operators , finance, and education , enterprises and other industries.

In the future, under the guidance of the "cloud intelligence native" strategy, New H3C Group will continue to increase the R&D and innovation of IPv6+ emerging technologies, and work with partners to promote the integration and innovative development of IPv6 and various fields, and fully empower the new generation of high-quality networks building.
