Abstract
AbstractThis paper investigates the performance of Video Protocols over IPv6 and IP transition mechanisms. It mainly focuses on the impact caused by IP transition mechanisms on video packets and compares this with pure IPv6 based networks. The video protocols selected in this experiment were MPEG-1, MPEG-2, MPEGP-4, MKV and FLV. In this experiment a Dual-Stack and two tunnelling mechanisms were established and the impact of these mechanisms on five video protocols was measured. The parameters measured were actual-throughput over a pure IPv6 network, impacted-throughput (due IP transition mechanisms) and CPU utilization. The results indicate that video packet with large size had been impacted more than packets with small size using these IP transition mechanisms. Dual-Stack mechanism performed much better than two tunnelling mechanisms (IPv6to4 & IPv6in4) tested. IPv6in4 tunnelling mechanism had more impact than IPv6to4 tunnelling mechanism over all the video protocols tested with IPv6to4 marginally close for all protocols tested. Performance comparison between video protocols shows that FLV protocol was least impacted while MPEG-2 was highly impacted by the tunnelling mechanisms. Further detail is covered in this paper including specification for actual-throughput, impacted-throughput and CPU utilization.KeywordsVideo protocolsperformance evaluationactual-throughputImpacted-throughputIPv6to4 tunnelIPv6in4 tunnel & Dual-Stack mechanism
