This paper outlines many of the common known threats against IPv4 and then compares and contrasts how these threats, or similar ones, might affect an IPv6 network. Some new threats specific to IPv6 are also considered. The current capabilities of available products are evaluated, as is how any inherent protocol characteristics of IPv6 affect the nature of the threat. This is prefaced by a brief overview of current best practices around the design of an IPv4 Internet edge network and then followed by a review of how that IPv4 edge network needs to evolve in order to secure the addition of IPv6.
