What You're Going To Learn

  • Describe the factors that led to the development of IPv6, and the possible usages of this new IP structure.
  • Explore the structure of the IPv6, and the possible usages of this new IP structure how IPv6 interacts with link-layer technologies, and how IPv6 is supporting in Cisco IOS software.
  • Describe the nature of changes to DNS and DHCP to support IPv6, and how networks can be renumbered using both services.
  • Understand multicast concepts and IPv6 multicast specifics.
  • Describe IPv6 transition mechanisms and which methods will be most effective in your network.
  • Examine security issues, how security for IPv6 is different than for IPv4, and emerging practices for IPv6 enabled networks.
  • Describe the standard bodies that define IPv6 address allocation, as well as one of the leading IPv6 deployment issues, multihoming.
  • Describe the deployment strategies service providers are facing when deploying IPv6.
  • Explore case studies for enterprise, service provider, branch, and access networks.
