Query: Network Reconnaissance in IPv6-based Residential Broadband Networks   Network scanning has been a widely used technique to gather information on
the Internet as a whole. The transition from IPv4 to IPv6 causes traditional
network scanning to become less useful. An increasing number of hosts is either
IPv6-only or not publicly addressable via IPv4 due to the use of NAT, prompting
a need for network scanning techniques for the IPv6-based Internet. All current
approaches to IPv6 network scanning make use of hitlists (lists of IPv6
addresses to be scanned). A variety of methods for compiling hitlists have been
presented, but they have a strong bias towards server hosts, and do not find
addresses of client hosts -- smartphones, tablets, PCs, 'smart home' devices,
etc. -- in a significant amount. Client hosts are the majority of devices
connected to the Internet. Furthermore, when connected to a residential
broadband connection, they can exchange data at substantial speeds, making them
attractive targets for botnets. Scanning residential broadband networks is
challenging because the active addresses are changing much more frequently than
addresses of server hosts.
  This master's thesis aims to adapt prior IPv6 network scanning techniques to
residential broadband networks. To this end, the following contributions are
made:
  Description and evaluation of an IPv6 address space visualization method,
  Introduction of the NTP Pool Project as a public and passive IPv6 hitlist
source detecting mostly client hosts, 'Smart Home' devices and CPEs,
  Description of a scanning technique for Internet access provider networks,
  Case study on the three major German residential broadband networks.
