<b>Subject:</b> [AusNOG] Telstra IPv6 Wireless Enablement - IPv6 Single Stack</font>

<div dir="ltr">Hi AusNOGgers, </div>
<div dir="ltr"><br>
Following our dual-stack enablement in Aug 2016, Telstra is proud the announce the second step in our transition to IPv6 - IPv6 Single-Stack deployment on Telstra wireless.<br>
This means shortly when you attach your mobile to Telstra.WAP APN it will only get an Ipv6 address NO Ipv4 address.<br>
<br>
Note that the enablement is currently targeted at both pre and post-paid services.<br>
<br>
This deployment of Ipv6 Single-Stack is only for Telstra.WAP APN which is primarily used by handsets and tablets.<br>
Telstra.internet APN is primary used for dongles, BYOD tablets, modems etc. so this will remain as dual-stack.<br>
<br>
* timeframe * <br>
We are planning to start the deployment on 10/2 and 13/2 in South Australia.<br>
Further deployments in other states are planned by the end of Feb and will be advised to the list.<br>
<br>
* device scope *<br>
Any Mobile device that is configured as Dual Stack for Telstra.wap, either default or manually configured.<br>
The scope of this change will impact devices that are using the latest version of the operating system, either out of the box or through an OS update.<br>
It will also impact Android devices which are configured for Telstra.wap and manually configured for dual-stack.<br>
<br>
* Things to be aware of *<br>
- This is a network based solution, when it receives a dual-stack request it will only allocate a Ipv6 Address.<br>
- Services on Telstra.WAP APN will only get a Ipv6 address(No Ipv4)<br>
- This solution is using a DNS64+NAT64 setup.<br>
- If your website/content/other is advertising a AAAA Ipv6 DNS record,
<br>
=> This may cause problems if your website is not 100% Ipv6<br>
- Impact to apps is expected to be limited as all apps submitted to Apple store have been DNS64/NAT64 mandated since June 1 2016.<br>
<br>
* Basic flow *<br>
- If Alice is connecting to a website with a Ipv6 AAAA DNS record, It will be a pure Ipv6 connection.<br>
- If Alice is connecting to a website with only a A DNS record, our DNS will spoof the website address with a Well Known Prefix (WKP) so it routes to the NAT64 gateway to Ipv4 internet.<br>
- If Alice is connecting to a Ipv4 address literal(x.x.x.x), It may fail.<br>
<br>
* Why is AusNOG hearing about this now *<br>
This is a major step in Telstra's Ipv6 journey, and with all things there will be teething issues when we launch.<br>
We are aiming to work with community forums like AusNOG and Whirlpool to ensure this is a smooth transition.

For any assistance, Please refer to;<br>
For apps which appear broken, it may not support ipv6 DNS64+NAT64, contact your application support<br>
