ION Djibouti: Presentation from ION Djibouti on 2 June 2014 by Hisham Ibrahim. 6 June 2014 marks the 2nd anniversary of World IPv6 Launch, when thousands of Internet Service Providers, home networking equipment manufacturers, and web companies around the world came together to permanently enable IPv6 on their products and services. Where are we now on the path to full global IPv6 adoption? We’ll provide a global update and then focus on the current state of IPv6 adoption in Africa, including statistics and lessons learned from and since World IPv6 Launch, and the next steps needed to move forward with IPv6 deployment in Africa.
