中兴通讯 ZTE CORP。 RATION Prospect for IPv6 in China +Currently 59, 100, 000 internet users in Chinese mainland, accounts for only 4. 6% of China's population Large development potential tWe will not run out of IPv4 addresses in the short term, but the continuing growth of Internet can only rely on IPv6 The future is Ipv6 Internet 2003-4-9 Page 2

中兴通讯 ZTE CORP。 RATION Prospect for IPv6 in China +It's unwise to wait for the IPv4 address depletion Start IPv6 deployment now! +The sooner IPv6 is deployed the more opportunities for Internet development -Make ready for IPv6 applications -shorten the IPv4/IPv6 transitional period -reduce the complexity of (dual stack)Internet management and development costs 2003-4-9 Page 3

中兴通讯 ZTE CORP。 RATION Prospect for IPv6 in China Need strong support from the government -Killer applications are still under development Set up IPv6 trial networks Collect operational experience before transitioning to commercial networks(New applications business model in IPv6 networks.) This is just what is being done in China +Build IPv6 network as a part of nGn Not just IP, we should have a much broader view 2003-4-9 Page 4

中兴通讯 ZTE CORP。 RATION Early deployment of IPv6 should be mainly in mobile networks tThere are large IPv4 investment in fixed networks Smooth transition to IPv6 is a problem tMobile and Wireless internet is in its early stage of development Is growing rapidly Mobile support in IPv6 is much better than in IPv4 - IPv6 provides large enough address space 2003-4-9 Page 5
