Research and Exploration of IPv6 Network Service for Multimedia Devices
With the successful deployment of IPv6 on a large scale,the end-to-end connectivity capability based on the IPv6 protocol has been significantly enhanced.This paper verifies the feasibility of common multimedia devices in household environment using IPv6 network connection and streaming service through IPv4/IPv6 dual-stack network through experimental method.The main contributions of this paper include:proposed a scheme to establish IPv4/IPv6 dual-stack network in enterprise intranet based on fiber optic broad-band connection;tested the IPv6 compatibility of common multimedia devices in household environment;verified the feasibility of pro-viding IPv6-based streaming video services for multimedia devices;analyzed problems in providing IPv6 network services for multimedia devices based on above experiments and looked forward to the direction of future work.
