104、nners show significant growth,followed by Adopters,while Starters see no marked change from last year Digitalization Level:User indicators gauge the capability of end-users to access the network via IPv6.Front-runners and Adop-ters boast high digitalization levels,with users widely exposed to emergi

105、ng tech-nologies like 5G and IoT,whereas Starters have lower overall digitalization,limiting the propagation of IPv6 to end-users.Concentration of Operators:Many Starter countries have a low level of concentration in their telecom operator markets,with intense competition making them sensi-tive to c

107、formance slightly dips from last year IPv6 Optimization and Maintenance Systems Lag Behind Expansion:Effective-ness indicators assess the network quality experienced by end-users accessing the network via IPv6,including connection speed and reliability.With some Front-run-ners witnessing a surge in

108、IPv6 connec-tions,their optimization and maintenance systems face increased pressure,leading to longer connection delays.Compared to their mature IPv4 setups with opti-mized performance,these Front-runners IPv6 networks perform less satisfactorily in terms of connection speed.Nonethe-less,given thei

204、nd Berger 26 IPv6 development in Kenya3.10.KenyaIPv6 development analysis Kenyas IPv6 Development Index in 2023 is ranked 50 out of 92 countries,classifying it as an Adopter.The country has made notable strides in planning and impact indicators,now rank-ing 25th and 6th respectively.Particularly,the

205、 jump of around 20 positions in the ef-fect metric propels Kenya from being an Adopter to a Front-runner,highlighting substantial progress in the practical out-comes of its IPv6 implementation.Conversely,Kenya lags in network infra-structure,content availability,and user engagement,with rankings tha

206、t place it in the Starter tier.Of particular concern is the user engagement indicator,which has seen a decline compared to the previous year,emphasizing the need for focused at-tention and targeted enhancements in this area.26Policy suggestions Iterative Support Measures to Ensure Ef-fective IPv6 Mi

207、gration Strategy Implemen-tation-Following Kenyas release of the National IPv6 Migration Strategy in 2022,delays in full IPv6 adoption risk leaving millions of users disconnected and escalating oper-ational costs for internet service provid-ers(ISPs),which could be passed onto consumers.To avoid thi

208、s,the government must dynamically monitor the strategys implementation progress,adjusting and updating complementary measures as needed based on real-world develop-ments.This includes launching aware-ness campaigns targeting both providers and consumers to increase understand-ing of IPv6s importance

209、,as well as or-ganizing hands-on training sessions on IPv6 migration to equip stakeholders with practical skills.Incentivization and Regulation to Acceler-ate IPv6 Penetration-Financial Support for IPv6 Deployment:Governments often establish national or sector-specific funds and offer fiscal subsidi
