PLANCHART, Franklin. Optimization of the basic plan of numeration and identification in the public network of data transmission of Venezuela. Rev. Fac. Ing. UCV [online]. 2008, vol.23, n.1, pp.87-101. ISSN 0798-4065.

An issue of current interest is that of control over systems of enumeration. Such control concerns Internet Protocol (IP) numbers and domain names. Protocols such as Electronic Number Mapping, RFC 2916 (ENUM), aimed at separating the current telephone structure control scheme through the integration of IP networks and the Public Switching Telephone Network (PSTN), based on the format of E.164 numbering, has not been implemented due to restrictions in granting one root of level zero by the Internet Corporation for the Assignation of Names and Numbers (ICANN), for the creation of the e164.arpa domain, parallel to in-adr.arpa (root of the present dominion). The solution put forward here has been to recommend the creation of the plan for world-wide numeration based on IPv6 that introduces the concept of nationality in the IPv6 format. We also suggest the creation of one system of names based on national codes that would allow us to address and consult the Domain Name System (DNS) of countries (at the level of telephone services) without having to go for a root system controlled by any one nation. That is to say, we propose a division of the DNS. This alternative combines the ENUM protocol, portability and mobility through the connection between the PSTN with the IPv6 Network. The introduction of IPv6 allows us to introduce the Universal Mobile Telecommunications System (UMTS), on a large scale and to benefit from the x Digital Subscriber Line (xDSL) platform. The idea is to eliminate the Network Address Translation (NAT), through the substitution of the current numeration plan based on IPv4.
