- 2-4 day(s)
- Aimed At
-
This course is aimed at I/T and telecom professionals who require a hands-on workshop to help them with IPv6 migration preceded by an up-front review of key IPv4 concepts.
- Prerequisites
-
You should have some prior knowledge of or on-the-job experience with IPv4.
- Course in a Nutshell
-
IPv6 overcomes some of the limitations of IPv4, such as the limited address space, while introducing a number of enhancements in areas such as routing and network auto-configuration. IPv6 is expected to gradually replace IPv4, with the two coexisting for a number of years. With IPv4 networks now migrating to IPv6 worldwide, there is need for a strong hands-on workshop focusing on the IPv6 migration. This course was designed to address that need.
This course is a sweeping start-to-finish introduction to Internet Protocol including both IPv4 and IPv6. The standard outline has been structured to emphasize the migration strategy for a simplified, flat backbone. However, the course can be customized to your own network’s architecture and can exclude or include topics to cater to issues of interest to you now and in the near future. The instruction will employ a powerful combination of lecture and discussion led by a leading IP expert, hands-on lab work that will help you acquire job-specific analysis and trouble-shooting skills, and a workshop day at the end of the course devoted to a full day of detail-level planning for migration to IPv6.
- Customize It!
-
Let us know your reason for studying IPv6 so we can customize the course to your specific needs.
If you do possess prior knowledge of IPv4, the IPv4 material can be omitted, resulting in some time savings. The course can also be shortened by excluding the migration planning that is included in the fourth day.
The course is normally taught workshop-style with the participants using WireShark to engage in hand-on exercises. The course can be optionally taught as a tutorial that does not include the hands-on work.
