China has made a major step forward in Internet technology, which could offer faster, more secure access and ease worries over network capacity, industry insiders said this weekend.

An expert panel composed of top scientists and researchers, entrusted by the National Development and Research Commission (NDRC), on Saturday gave an acceptance certificate to an academic network called CERNET2 (China Education and Research Network 2), which connects 25 universities in 20 cities across the country.

CERNET2 is at the forefront of the development of the "China next generation Internet" (CNGI), the world's largest single Internet Protocol version 6 (IPv6) network.

IPv6 exponentially increases the number of possible Internet protocol (IP) addresses available for connecting PCs and other devices to the Internet.

Under the current IPv4 system controlled by the United States, there are mounting fears that the Internet address pool could run dry, especially in Asia, as more and more people connect to the Internet.

The new technologies that will support the IPv6 system will also offer consumers faster and more secure access, the experts said.

Wu Hequan, vice-president of the Chinese Academy of Engineering and vice-director of the expert panel, said the certification shows China is ahead of the game in building the next generation of the Internet.

"We have made some major breakthroughs in core technologies in CERNET2. The CNGI is now a world-leading Internet network," Wu said in an interview with China Daily.

Japan and South Korea are researching IPv6, and the US Department of Defense is also working on a similar network, though details are not known.

In August 2003, the State Council approved a plan submitted by eight ministries to construct the CNGI.

China has high expectations for the CNGI, which has become a centrepiece of the country's plans to cut reliance on foreign companies for core technologies.
