IPv6 Fundamentals and Migration Planning
Training Duration:
3 Days
IPv6 Transition Training Outline:
This three-day training sessions was designed for network professionals (engineers, system admins, security professionals, IT managers) who need to learn the details of IPv6 implementation.
ITdojo's vendor-neutral IPv6 transition training seminar explores the details of IPv6 and analyzes its behavior in a network. During this three-day, instructor-led, lab intensive seminar you will learn:
- The highs & lows of IPv4 and how IPv6 fixes IPv4 gaps
- In detail, how IPv6 addressing works
- IPv6 packet structure, including supporting protocol structures
- The behaviors of ICMPv6, IPv6 Multicasting, IPv6 Extension Headers, Stateful & Stateless
- Autoconfiguration, tunneling and migration strategies (Teredo, ISATAP, TRT, NAT-PT)
- How to deploy IPv6 on Cisco® routers, Windows servers & desktops as well as Linux.
- Migration and integration strategies and the pros and cons of the many options available
If you are in need of a longer training session, or a more compact session, please let us know. We can accomodate the amount and level of training that is required for your group.
