\chapter{\label{summary}Conclusion and Outlook}
%** Summary.tex: What have you achieved, what have you presented in this
% document. What are the highlights of your work.
% It should conclude by a conclusion.
Sum up what you have done and recapitulate your key findings.
p4 potential
Many possibilities
Protocol independent
Easy architecture
NDP parsing support
Can be deployed using the netpfga. Or Barefoot or Arista.
OUTLOOK What are the consequences of your work for future work?
Different HW
Speed only limited to line speed. Could be running at 100 Gbit/s
without modifications.
PMTU
handling error cases
Our algorithm uses the IPv4-Compatible IPv6 Address\cite{rfc4291} to
embed IPv4 addresses. However RFC6052\cite{rfc6052} defines different
embeddings depending on the prefix size. A future version should
support these schemes to be compatible to other implementations.
No fragmentation
No address / mac learning
**** No DNS64
has already been solved in a different domain - could even do
transparent / in network modification. DNSSEC.
**** Incomplete NDP
Very limited option support
No resolution of hardware addresses
While the port to NetPFGA was significantly more effort then expected,
the learnings of the different layers were very much appreciated / liked
It was a
NetFGPA - conclusion here}
Very time intensive development due to usability problems and
uncertainty of functionality (compare sections
\ref{results:netpfga:usability} and \ref{results:netpfga:stability}).
