What were the issues in implementing IPv6?
Address spoofing is a major issue on tunnels to a 6to4 relay router. For incoming traffic, the 6to4 router is unable to match the IPv4 address of the relay router with the IPv6 address of the source. Therefore, the address of the IPv6 host can easily be spoofed. The address of the 6to4 relay router can also be spoofed.
Why does IPv6 take so long to implement?
But IPv6 is being adopted at a glacially slow pace. The reasons for the gradual adoption are simple to understand. It’s expensive. When they were developing IPv6, the Internet Engineering Task Force decided that, in order to implement new features in IPv6, the protocol would not be backward compatible with IPv4.
Why the switch from IPv4 to IPv6 is so difficult?
The primary difficulty is that IPv6 addresses are not backwards compatible with IPv4. On one side, the network protocols are different. That requires new support in your routers, servers, and clients. You need to configure all parts of it differently from the IPv4 case.
