IPng: The Next Generation Internet Protocol Steve Deering, Xerox Palo Alto Research Center, USA A new version of the Internet's core protocol, IP, has been developed by the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) and is now entering the IETF Standards track. The new IP, known as IPng or IP version 6, is designed to meet the scaling requirements imposed by the explosive growth of the Internet, and to meet the demand for greater functionality at the internet layer, including strong security, automated configuration, and support for multimedia traffic. In this tutorial, the lead designer of IPng will present a detailed walkthrough of the protocol, explaining what it is, why it is, and what role it is expected to play in the evolution of the Internet. Outline: - why a new IP? - IPng addressing and routing architecture: unicast, multicast, support for mobile hosts, dynamic selection of service providers, address allocation and administration. - extensibility: extension headers and options. - IPng security: source authentication, data integrity and confidentiality. - support for real-time traffic flows and non-default qualities of service. - autoconfiguration and reconfiguration of IPng nodes ("plug-and-play"). - the effects of IPng on higher-layer protocols and APIs. - interoperation with, and transition from, the current version of IP. Prerequisite: familiarity with the current version of IP. 3. Internet: Making the Business Case Gordon Howell, Internet Business Services, Scotland In their year-end reports, both Newsweek and the US News and World Report rated the Internet as one of the top 10 developments in 1994. The UK Economist suggested that the internet will be an "indispensible tool" for businesses in the late 90s. The internet "gold rush" is on, but where are you likely to strike "pay dirt"? Is it really possible for conventional, non-technical businesses to take advantage of the new electronic media to enhance their business? What are the emerging business "conventions" in use on the internet? This tutorial looks at how conventional business processes can be enhanced by the internet, and considers how to develop new lines of business specifically to exploit the medium. Examples in areas such as customer services, electronic publishing and direct marketing (shopping for users) will be presented. The tutorial will be of interest to two audiences: 1. Business and market development executives of non-IT companies 2. Entrepreneurs in the IT field seeking more insight into what markets might exist and services offered related to the internet The tutorial objective for both is simple: How do you make the business case? Outline: 1. Internet for Business Part I: Business applications - Overview: the Internet and the "Information Superhighway" - Key business functions & examples - Internet for communications, research, publishing, marketing & sales 2. Internet for Business Part II: Making the Case - Assessing the business needs & opportunities - Typical justifications for Internet - worked examples - Internet business development strategies 3. Dealing with the Internet industry - The Internet Industry model - who sells what - Getting connected & your electronic identity - key considerations - Integrating with other electronic services: Fax, Compuserve, X.400, etc. - Key issues and developments to follow: security, electronic payments, acceptable use policies 4. Discussion 4. Internetworking with ATM (Asynchronous Transfer Mode) Allison Mankin and Eric Hoffman, ISI, USA As more and more people start using the Internet, the traffic increases and need arises for bandwidth. Generation of audio/video data is becoming easier as PCs become ever more powerful, and multimedia traffic will become ever more frequent. ATM technology at 155/612/2,400 Mbps (2.4Gbps) will be used for adding bandwidth to meet these needs. Starting from what ATM is, we will give you insight into how you can use ATM effectively in the Internet. We will emphasize IP over ATM and end-to-end ATM transmission, although other stacks are discussed. Signalling, the classical IP approach, the Next Hop Resolution Protocol (NHRP), and addressing and routing prospects are among the topics. A portion of the tutorial will be devoted to practical information on implementation and problem-solving for ATM segments in internetworks today. 5. Internet security Steve Crocker, CyberCash, USA When companies join the internet, security is a major concern. To address the problem, there are emerging security technologies such as firewalls, proxy servers, PEM (Privacy Enhanced Mails) and a number of encryption schemes such as secure Mosaic/HTTP and secure payment protocols. These new technologies will be described in detail for business applications. This tutorial is intended for everyone who needs to understand the security issues associated with a connection to the Internet and what technology is available to protect their resources. Outline: 1. Internet security threats 2. Overview of methods of protection 3. The use of challenge-response systems 4. Firewalls 5. Brief introduction to public key cryptography and message digests 6. Security in the transport protocols 7. Security in mail protocols, PEM, PGP, etc. 8. Security in web protocols, S-HTTP and CyberCash 9. Security administration ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Tutorial Instructor Information 1.
