Overview
Learn about IPv6 addressing and address types, dynamic IPv6 address assignment using SLAAC, stateless DHCPv6 and stateful DHCPv6, DHCPv6 prefix delegation, ICMPv6 Neighbor Discovery, and routing IPv6 using EIGRP for IPv6 and OSPFv3, including named EIGRP and OSPFv3 address families.
Description
IPv6 can be challenging for everyone, from CCNA students to seasoned network engineers. The transition to IPv6 has begun, mostly due to the long-anticipated problem of IPv4 address exhaustion. The lessons in this video give you a strong foundation in understanding the IPv6 protocol, including IPv6 addressing and address types; dynamic IPv6 address assignment using SLAAC; stateless DHCPv6 and stateful DHCPv6; ICMPv6 Neighbor Discovery; address resolution; and routing IPv6 using EIGRP for IPv6 and OSPFv3, including named EIGRP and OSPFv3 address families. Using the information in this video, you will understand how IPv6 is implemented in a network. The author provides a series of short instructional videos that clearly explain these and other IPv6 topics. These videos will help those already familiar with IPv4 become confident in their understanding and implementation of IPv6.
About the Instructor
Rick Graziani teaches computer science and computer networking courses at Cabrillo College in Aptos, California, where he has also implemented IPv6. Rick has worked and taught in the computer networking and information technology field for nearly 30 years. Prior to teaching, Rick worked in IT for various companies, including the U.S. Coast Guard, Santa Cruz Operation, Tandem Computers, and Lockheed Missiles and Space Corporation. He holds an M.A. in computer science and systems theory from California State University, Monterey Bay. Rick is also a member of the Cisco Academy Curriculum Engineering team and has presented at many Cisco Networking Academy Conferences throughout the country. He often presents on IPv6 fundamentals and routing IPv6, and is the author of the Cisco Press books IPv6 Fundamentals, Implementing Cisco IP Routing (ROUTE) Foundation Learning Guide (CCNP ROUTE 300-101), Routing Protocols Companion Guide, and Connecting Networks Companion Guide.
Skill Level
Beginner to Intermediate
What You Will Learn
- The reasons for the transition to IPv6 and a brief history of its development
- A comparison between the IPv4 and IPv6 protocols
- IPv6 addressing in depth (and how it differs from IPv4) including global unicast, link-local unicast and multicast addresses
- Stateless address autoconfiguration (SLAAC), stateless DHCPv6, stateful DHCPv6, and DHCPv6-PD (Prefix Delegation)
- ICMPv6 Neighbor Discovery including address resolution and duplicate address detection
- IPv6 configuration options for Cisco routers and hosts
- IPv6 routing protocols including EIGRP for IPv6, Named EIGRP, and OSPFv3 and OSPFv3 address families
- Understanding the IPv6 routing table and defining static IPv6 routes
Who Should Take This Course
Ideal for the CCNA student, CCNP student, or anyone familiar with IPv4. By the time students complete this course, they will be prepared to take on more complex IPv6 topics, including security mobility, MPLS, and enterprise migration.
Course Requirements
Familiarity with IPv4 and basic networking. These lessons would be useful for someone just learning networking to the seasoned network engineer.
