The prime objective of the Romania IPv6 Forum and its members is to promote deployment andcoordinated uptake of the new Internet Protocol version 6 (IPv6) with support from industry,
education, research communities and government agencies enabling equitable access totechnology and knowledge.

Romanian IPv6 Forum has been created to extend to the Romania Internet community astrong voice and representation in the new Internet world to create momentum in

The Internet World has been using the Internet Protocol version 4 (IPv4) for the last twodecades. Despite its tremendous success, IPv4 is showing signs of strain especially in its fast

everyone and everything, stateless auto-configuration, seamless mobility, automated networkmanagement, end to end security and new optional service levels.
