Introduction Of An Internet Of Things

This paper gives a clear understanding on the current state of art on the IoT. The primary idea of the IoT concept is the pervasive existence around us of a wide range of things such as Radio-Frequency Identification (RFID) tags, actuators, sensors, mobile phones, etc. These are able to communicate with each other and collaborate with their neighbors to reach collective goals through distinctive addressing scheme.

Abstract: The main motive for the development of IPv6 is to add the advanced and better features for the IPv4.Compared to IPv4 there are many better areas in IPv6 such as addressing, Routing , efficiency ,Quality of service, security and mobility. From past three years we have noticed that the IPv4 address exhaustion took place which lead to the development of the next generation internet protocol IPv6.The main aim of this paper is to discuss the transition changes of IPv4-IPv6 .

In the previous section I presented an overview of current adoption of IPv6, described its main features, and detailed the new address protocol header format.

The world is getting smarter and better and so are the devices. With the improved technology, we can check our mails on our watch; control our home temperature through our smartphone and much more. The term Internet of Things is referred to any object or device which connects to the Internet to automatically send and/or receive data [1].

connecting to the Internet is TCP/IP stack (Haseeb, 2017). Many IoT solutions such as vehicle

Internet of Things (IoT) are devices that can collect and share data with no human interactions. IoT are machines that connect to other machines. Examples of IoT’s are fitness trackers that report to a smart phone, smart vacuum cleaners that are self- propelled, and Apps for your smart phone that can adjust lighting, temperature or security features at your house when you are away.

promoting flexible and inflexible traffic [9]. The objectives of IPv6 were to help scale, protect,

The most problem is limited of address space because of IPv4 based on a 32-bit Internet address (J. Govil, 2007). The solution is for IPv6 to accommodate this increased demand by providing a much larger address space, along with better traffic routing and improved security. IPv6 is advancement from IPv4. It was designed to build on the current features of IPv4 with an addition of enhanced capabilities. IPv6 takes the best of what made IPv4 successful and gets rid of minor imperfections and unused features. IPv6 has 128-bit address space or 4 times more address bits compared to IPv4. So, there are more than enough IPv6 addresses to keep the Internet operational for a

This paper looks at the security concerns that the Internet of Things, or IOT carries along with it. The Internet of Things is defined as “a proposed development of the Internet in which everyday objects have network connectivity, allowing them to send and receive data” This increasing level of connectivity and interconnectivity certainly makes everyday tasks easier for the average person, but at the same time, it makes finding holes in security measures easier as well. The Internet of Things is said to have been “in the works” in the 1990’s. In 1999, the term “Internet of Things” is created by Kevin Ashton, the executive director of Auto-ID. Auto-ID is an academic research network pertaining to the Internet of Things. The Internet of Things took a huge step with the use and introduction of RFID (Radio Frequency IDentification). RFID really pushed the future of the Internet of Things, as it has a direct relationship to what the Internet of Things is all about, the communication between devices and objects. An example of this is an RFID tag being embedded in an intermodal container full of fruit, and arriving/departing a specific port at a shipping depot. Once the container passes a designated point, the time of arrival/departure, temperature in the container, days until expiration, and other key information.

The Internet of Things is a complex, innovative system rooted in the idea of connectivity. Individual artifacts that transmit data and information amongst each other ensure a smooth and coherent experience based off their ability to communicate through internet connection, sharing the same network to create incomparable efficiency and convenience. The Internet of Things is constantly developing to work in new areas and scenarios, further securing its essentiality in the domain of the technological future

Apart from wireless sensors and RFID’s there is also a need to recognize each and every object uniquely, which requires a large pool of IP Addresses, so undoubtedly IPv6 is the best choice. Cloud computing is one of the emerging technologies which can give IoT a new dimension promising proper storage, management and processing of the data.

Prepare to meet tomorrow's business needs with native support for IPv6, which lets you take advantage of the latest networking applications and operating systems without having to upgrade

Wireless sensor network (WSN) is one of the fastest growing areas in networking world today. In order to convert WSN from personal area network (PAN) into low power personal area network (LoWPAN), IEEE standard 802.15.4 was introduced. However, future WSNs would consist of thousands of nodes and these networks may be connected to others via the internet. Hence, IPv6 over LoWPAN (6LoWPAN) is defined by Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) as a technique to integrate internet capability into WSN. 6LoWPAN provides a WSN node with IP communication capabilities by putting an adaptation layer above the IEEE 802.15.4 link layer for the packet fragmentation and reassembly

It is essential to provide secure environment while routing data in Wireless Sensor Network. IP version 6 provides necessary security. The length of the address is big and the header format is completely changed. Further, IPSec is part of the protocol suite. A Quality of Service feature can be implemented using the Flow Label field of the IPv6 header. This feature is used to provide priority levels to the data packets. Stateless Address Auto Configuration is a feature that helps version 6 addresses to get configured automatically when the hosts are connected to IP version 6 networks.

The applications/clients have their QoS prerequisites fulfilled, while guaranteeing productive resource utilization, i.e. productive bandwidth utilization.
