Executive Summary: The purpose of this planning guide is to provide United States (U.S.) Federal Government agency leaders with practical and actionable guidance on how to successfully integrate Internet Protocol version 6 (IPv6) throughout their enterprise. This guide has been updated from the original guide published in 2009 to aid in understanding the Federal Government’s Internet Protocol version 6 (IPv6) history, vision, current goals, and deadlines. Based on the information found in this document, the Agency Chief Information Officer (CIO), IPv6 Transition Managers, Chief Enterprise Architects, and Chief Acquisition Officers (CAO) can assess their own agency’s current IPv6 implementation progress and develop an agency-specific plan with detailed milestones to achieve the defined IPv6 goals for FY2012 and FY2014.
