Statement from Karen S. Evans - Administrator
Office of E-Government and Information Technology
As I stated in my testimony of June 29, 2005, before the House Committee on Government Reform, we have set June 2008 as the date by which all agencies’ infrastructure (network backbones) must be using IPv6 and agency networks must interface with this infrastructure. This memorandum and its attachments provide guidance to the agencies to ensure an orderly and secure transition from Internet Protocol Version 4 (IPv4) to Version 6 (IPv6). Since the Internet Protocol is core to an agency’s IT infrastructure, beginning in February, 2006 OMB will use the Enterprise Architecture Assessment Framework to evaluate agency IPv6 transition planning and progress, IP device inventory completeness, and impact analysis thoroughness.
Recent reports from the Government Accountability Office (GAO) and Department of Commerce’s National Telecommunications and Information Administration (NTIA) discuss the benefits, complexity, costs, and risks organizations may encounter during the transition to IPv6. Additionally, the Department of Homeland Security’s US-CERT has recently issued an advisory of security issues concerning IPv6. You should review these reports and the advisory to familiarize yourselves with the transition issues and ensure that risks are appropriately mitigated during your transition so the benefits are fully realized
