==Logo suggestion==I'm wonderring if this would be a good "logo" to replace the "Set $wgLogo to the URL path to your own logo image" on the top left. I have a suggestion that we could have a mozilla logo (if that's approved, that is) in the background (faded) and have the words Mozilla@Seneca on top 'The Internet of the mozilla logo! What do you guys think??Things'''
- 12:29 Monday The internet of things is a scenario which objects or devices connect each other without any human interaction. This scenario was issued in 1991 by implementing internet. In 20th century by developing nanotechnology and computer science, 18 Sept 2006 (EST)    [[User:Elichak|Liz Chak]] (elichak)experts start focusing more about internet of things. Many famous companies in IT change their business plane to develop their research in internet of things. They also have huge progress in it. By using internet of things scenario IT companies have main effect in developing in other industries like the medical and healthcare systems, energy management, building and home automation.
Many famous IT companies like Microsoft, CISCO and IBM. They create many solutions based on Internet of thing, For illustration, Microsoft Company engineers believe that Internet of Things is flexible and it helps converged between devices, it also consider: reducing hardware costs, more machine are talking to each other, Software is more advanced than ever, The economic benefits are huge.
It might be nice to have something that Although experts in IT solve many problems by using internet of things scenario, but there is Mozilla or OSS relateda serious problem, how we can manage this huge network. Off By using IPv4 topology scientists found out they will face the top lack of my head I'm not sure what that would be thoughIP amount problem. Therefore they create new version of IP topology which is IPv6 topology. By using IPv6 topology we can administer it reliably, efficiently and securely.
==Mozilla/OSS related logo==Yeah, that's what I thought so too.''Definition of IPv6'''
Logo idea: IPv6 (Internet Protocol Version 6) is the latest level of the Internet Protocol (IP) and is now included as part of IP support in many products including the major computer operating systems. IPv6 (Internet Protocol version 6) is a set of specifications from the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) that's essentially an upgrade of IP version 4 (IPv4). The basics of IPv6 are similar to those of IPv4 -- devices can use IPv6 as source and destination addresses to pass packets over a network, and tools like ping work for network testing as they do in IPv4, with some slight variations. The most obvious improvement in IPv6 over IPv4 is that IP addresses are lengthened from 32 bits to 128 bits. This extension anticipates considerable future growth of the Internet and provides relief for what was perceived as an impending shortage of network addresses. IPv6 also supports auto-configuration to help correct most of the shortcomings in version 4, and it has integrated security and mobility features.

I think that something with moz and seneca together would be most appropriate. It's great Uses Flow Label field to have people active in this :)identify packet flow for QoS handling by router.

Sherman, that is an idea. However, the Seneca Sting "bee" represents the Seneca Recreation Council. I don't know how relevant that logo would be for our case, but we could probably try to incorporate that with the mozilla logo Uses Multicast Listener Discovery (if we get permissionsMLD)messages to manage membership in local subnet groups. It's too bad Seneca doesn't have a REAL logo.- 15:28 Monday, 18 Sept 2006 (EST)    [[User:Elichak|Liz Chak]] (elichak)
Uses ICMPv6 Router Solicitation and Router Advertisement messages to determine the IP address of the best default gateway.
I'm writing an email to request for permission to use the mozilla logo. - 09:30 Tuesday, 19 Sept 2006 (EST)    [[User:Elichak|Liz Chak]] (elichak)''History of IPv6'''
The transition from Internet Protocol v4 to v6 is the biggest infrastructure shift in the Internet since the network was founded. Proposed in 1995 and adopted as a workable protocol in 1999, Internet Protocol version 6 was designed to support the Internet’s rampant growth. It promised to boost the number of Internet addresses from 4.3 billion to (3.4x1038) about 670 quadrillion addresses per square millimetre of the Earth's surface! IPv6 also offers a tighter security through packet-level encryption and stepped-up authentication, along with the ability for routers to better manage traffic flow through such features as packet labeling. The header format would be improved, enabling traffic management features such as "fast lanes," or fatter channels for bigger content.
Liz, perhaps you should make a REAL logo for Seneca too. Wasn't there a contest for this sometime back? (or perhaps for the rec logo?)[[User:Mdsouza|Mark D'Souza]] (mdsouza)'Benefits /comparison between IPv6 and IPv4'''

- 10:49 TuesdayIPv6 networks provide auto configuration capabilities. They are simpler, 19 Sept 2006 (EST) &nbsp;&nbsp; [[User:Elichak|Liz Chak]] (elichak)flatter and more manageable, especially for large installations.
=A logo Concept - A Photoshop Wizard I Am Not=Here's something I whipped up - you get the idea:Networks must be configured manually or with DHCP. IPv4 has had many overlays to handle Internet growth, which demand increasing maintenance efforts.
[[Image:mozillaAtSeneca3.jpg|thumb\Mozilla At S@Y]]End-to-end connective integrity
Direct addressing is possible due to vast address space -3:23 Wednesday, 20 Sept 2006 (EST) &nbsp;&nbsp; [[User:Dmmanley|Dave Manley]] (seneManley) the need for network address translation devices is effectively eliminated.
Widespread use of NAT devices means that a single NAT address can mask thousands of non-routable addresses, making end-to-end integrity unachievable.
That is so cool! It's hilarious! I like this! Let's hear from the other folks! Unconstrained address abundance
3.4 x 1038 = 340 trillion trillion addresses -15:44 Wednesday, 20 Sept 2006 (EST) &nbsp;&nbsp; [[User:Elichak|Elizabeth Chak]] (elichak)about 670 quadrillion addresses per square millimetre of the Earth's surface.
Yup, this is pretty nice and funny4.29 x 109 = 4.2 billion addresses - far less than even a single IP address per person on the planet. I say we use it!
-19:00 Thursday, 20 Sept 2006 (EST) &nbsp;&nbsp; [[User:Mdsouza|Mark D'Souza]] (mdsouza)Platform for innovation and collaboration
Awesome (dave)Given the numbers of addresses, scalability and flexibility of IPv6, its potential for triggering innovation and assisting collaboration is unbounded.
== My GIMP masterpiece ==IPv4 was designed as a transport and communications medium, and increasingly any work on IPv4 is to find ways around the constraints.
[[Image:mozLogo.png]]Integrated interoperability and mobility
--[[User:Pcvitori|Pcvitori]] 10:14, 22 September 2006 (EDT)IPv6 provides interoperability and mobility capabilities which are already widely embedded in network devices.
NiceRelatively constrained network topologies restrict mobility and interoperability capabilities in the IPv4 Internet.. im liking both of them. We need to setup a panel of judges!
--[[User:Mylau|mylau]] 10:56, 22 September 2006 (EDT)Improved security features
WowIPSEC is built into the IPv6 protocol, love this logousable with a suitable key infrastructure.
Security is dependent on applications - IPv4 was not designed with security in mind.
This is for you Phill [[Image:mozLogo2.png]]Transparent for current layout [[Image:mozLogo3.png]]Transparent blue for your layout'''IPV6 Structure'''
WOWThe IPv6 protocol component includes Internet Control Message Protocol version 6 (ICMPv6), Multicast Listener Discovery (MLD), and Neighbor Discovery.IPv6 has different protocols, so IPv6 is not able to communicate with IPv4. Dejan, VERY NICE!!! I love the transparent one!!!(Microsoft 2003)

Sherman, this is such a great idea. However, the admins dont have access to zenit just yet (our wiki is moved to zenit) so we will only be able to set this up when we get the access.21DA:D3:0:2F3B:2AA:FF:FE28:9C5

I like #2. I don't think animation would be useful for something so small though.1) Unicast
- [[User:Bhearsum|bhearsum]] 20:59, 1 October 2006 (EDT2) Multicast
3) Anycast
Would it be possible Anycast is a new feature in IPv6. It classifies multiple interfaces and sends the packets to fill up a single and the whole 32X32 pixels with a bigger version nearest of the icon (don't worry about the textseveral services in a group.

== Customizable Sidebar =='''IPv6 Routing'''
I found an extension for mediawiki that allows IPv6 uses local routing table to forward packets on a user-customizable sidebarnetwork. Within the routing table, there is stored information about IPv6 network prefix.
httpThe routing table is used to determine://austinche.name/mediawiki/UserSidebar.php.txt
I'm finding myself clicking The next-hop address: It is the same links over destination address, it delivers packets directly, and over to get to my most commonly used pagesthe destination address is on a local link. Would anyone else use this?
The next- [[Userhope interface:Bhearsum|bhearsum]] 20:12, 4 October 2006 (EDT)It is used to identify the physical interface and it forwards the packets to destination or to the next router.
i'd like that, as long as i don't have to spend more than 5 minutes figuring out how to use it Defination of IP (internet protocol) -andrewThe Internet Protocol (IP) is the principal communications protocol in the Internet protocol suite for relaying datagrams across network boundaries
== Move News == Defination of IPV6 – it is the latest version of the Internet Protocol (IP), the communications protocol that provides an identification and location system for computers on networks and routes traffic across the Internet.
I moved the news to a separate page. Some Definition of IPV4 – it is the links are getting long fourth version in the tooth development of the Internet Protocol (though still importantIP)Internet, and the CBC news anchor with her mouth half-open had been routes most traffic on the front page for quite a whileInternet.
Moving the news to a separate page makes the Content area more prominent. However, it also makes the page look less interesting, so we should consider ways of improving the visual appeal of the front page.How efficient is IPv6 network
== New front page == IPv6 reduces the size of routing tables and makes routing more efficient and hierarchical. IPv6 allows ISPs to aggregate the prefixes of their customers' networks into a single prefix and announce this one prefix to the IPv6 Internet. In addition, in IPv6 networks, fragmentation is handled by the source device, rather than the router, using a protocol for discovery of the path's maximum transmission unit (MTU)
New front page installed yesterday after a number of consultations. Main features:* More compact format, based on Wikipedia front page* Colour styled to match OpenSource@Seneca logo* Uses templates for Events and Planet Feed* Fast-nav links for current courses and communities with which we're involved* Brief explanation of what CDOT is* Re-branded under the CDOT name* "Main Page" top-level heading removed via CSSPrivacy
We should consider migrating from IPv6 supports globally unique IP addresses by which the OpenSource@Seneca logo network activity of each device can potentially be tracked.The design of IPv6 intended to a CDOT logo at some point.re-emphasize the end-to-[[User:Chris Tyler|Chris Tyler]] 09:46, 24 February 2009 (EST)end principle of network design that was originally conceived during the establishment of the early Internet. In this approach each device on the network has a unique address globally reachable directly from any other location on the Internet
== Added Logos ==How secure is IPv6 ?
I added the logos for the 5 projects/communities we work with Is it secure enough to the bottom use in our daily lives? Yes it can be used and it is one of the front pagemost widely used networks. '''Note that due to Trademark guidelines, we're required to hyperlink the Fedora logo to http://fedoraprojectA widely assumed benefit of ipv6 is IPSEC support as ipv6 supports I0SEC for transport encryption which makes it secure.org/'''Another security feature is discovery of secure neighbour which makes it more and more secure.
Support in major o.s.   All major operating system have ipv6 .not only all os have ipv6 but their support is on default. This means that for most people ipv6 is possible to use with any operating system. Examples of OS which support ipv6 1.)Microsoft windows since windows vista and server 2008 2.)apple os x since 10.2 jaguar 3.) linux sice kernel 2.6.12  All in all ipv6 network is a reliable and efficient as ipv6 is supported by most of the operating system available in market, however there are some limitations in security, like it does not support IPsec (internet protocol security) properly, which is an important security feature .Basically it cannot prevent attacks on layers above the network layer in the network protocol stack.     References Creating the Internet of Your Things.
