Cisco Self-study: Implementing Ipv6 Networks Ipv6

About this book

Learn how to design build configure and support an IPv6 network Learn how to create IPv6 networks with Cisco Systems products Supplement your IPV6 course with a self-study guide based on the official course materials Understand practical applications of IPv6 through a solutions-oriented writing approach Increase comprehension and retention through chapter tools like objectives summaries scenarios and review questions The current IPv4 (IP version 4) standard allows for 4 billion host addresses though estimates place the real number at closer to 250 million hosts. These hosts are the address sites of devices on the Internet. With the growth of the Internet as well as the increasing number of devices that require a host address (like wireless devices) that supply of addresses will soon be exhausted. IPv6 is quickly being considered the solution to the ever-shrinking supply of hosts. With the capability to provide a host for every proton on the earth IPv6 not only will provide a significant increase in hosts it probably wont need to be replaced by a more advanced IP version for a decade. Cisco Self-Study: Implementing IPv6 Networks (IPv6) provides readers with an overview of the Cisco IP version 6 implementation. It is an in-depth technical reference for designing configuring deploying and debugging IPv6 on Cisco routers. Complete with practical examples that show the real-world application of IPv6 and based on the Cisco Systems course (IPv6) this title is valuable as a stand-alone resource for understanding IPv6 or as a supplement for a networking professional attending a Cisco Learning Partner instructor-led course. With coverage of the history of IPv6 strategies for implementation and management integration with Microsoft components and an overview of international implications this title is the comprehensive resource for understanding this valuable and inevitable
