dc.description.abstractThis thesis shows that ‘further decentralization for the allocation of Next Generation IPv6 Internet Addresses is possible without affecting the scalability and stability of the Internet routing system.’ It describes an ‘Expansionary Approach’ and an ‘Implementation model’ that allows for such decentralization. Currently, the allocation of Internet Protocol version 6 (IPv6) addresses follows a single hierarchy with a centralized authority at the top and some level of decentralization towards the bottom. Single hierarchy for IPv6 address allocation restricts user’s choice with the address allocation authority becoming a monopoly. Some members of the Internet community have voiced against the present system of IPv6 address allocation seeking for alternative solutions. In response to this, proposals have been made by researchers that are abstract models favoring further decentralization. Introducing further decentralization would remove existing monopoly of the Regional Internet Registry’s (RIRs), thereby creating competitiveness among the peers. A competitive environment with the provision to choose among multiple sources to obtain IPv6 addresses would benefit the users in terms of better or more efficient services.en_US
