IPv6 Ready Logo is a protocol conformance and interoperability assessment under the IPv6 Forum's certification program. Products may apply for relevant categories, such as Core Protocols or Customer Edge Routers, according to supported functions. After required testing and review, they may use the appropriate logo. Certification demonstrates IPv6 capabilities within the assessed scope; models, functions and versions must match the certification record.
I. IPv6 Product Scope
Common products include routers, switches, PON equipment, smart home terminals, network security products such as firewalls, IDS, IPS, security gateways, encryption devices, signature generation/verification servers and bastion hosts, and IoT products.

III. IPv6 Product Certification Categories
IPv6 Ready Core Protocols Logo certification is a category within the IPv6 Ready Logo program.
It assesses whether a product's IPv6 implementation meets IETF standards and ensures interoperability between products from different manufacturers.
It provides authoritative evidence of IPv6 support and is currently the category with the most applications.
IPv6 Ready CE Router Logo certification is another category within the program.
It includes all Core Protocols, DHCPv6 and RFC 7084 test items, providing more targeted and stringent assessment of device functions.
