 The risks of not deploying IPv6
• Failure to deploy IPv6 will:
• Hinder the development of new networks
• Decelerate digital inclusion or decrease the number of new users
• Hinder the development of new applications
• Increase the use of techniques such as NAT
• The cost of not deploying IPv6 may be higher than the cost of
doing so
• Internet service providers need to innovate and offer new services
to their customers
