I have been studying this book with the intent of obtaining Cisco CCNA certification.  However, I noticed several errors in the chapter on IPv6.  I have been in contact with the author about this and he said he will be updating that chapter to correct the errors I pointed out.  I have the Deluxe Edition, 6th edition, revised and updated for 2011, but I believe the errors may also be in the 7th edition.  So, if it's on the shelf now, it will likely contain those errors.  Wait for one with a…

I have noticed that many problems people experience are due to not understanding IPv6 and how it differs from IPv4.  There is one book that contains a lot of useful IPv6 information.  It is IPv6 Essentials, by Sylvia Hagen and published by O'Reilly.  It's available in both paper and e-book versions.  What's nice about the e-book version is purchasers are entitled to free updates.  I refer to this book…

So we have two camps out there at present, even split amongst continents.  One sits firmly on the Anti-CGN concept & the other is pro.  Now with transition technologies we don't have much of a choice considering there is really not an  "industry wide" roadmap to handle IPv6 and its transition, which opens another can of worms, and thus we are fractured on our future.  I would much prefer we come to an agreement of the future as an industry and be done with it, focus our resources on that…

I don't recall if I mentioned this before, but there's an IPv6 port scan site, which you can use to check your firewall on IPv6.

Don't miss the largest IPv6 conference in North America.

The Rocky Mountain IPv6 Task Force (RMv6TF), in conjunction with Regional North America IPv6 Task Forces is pleased to host the 2013 North American IPv6 Summit technology conference on April 17-19, 2013.

Join more than 500 IPv6 networking professionals who plan to attend, ranging from technology leaders, systems architects,…

I just received a Cisco SG 300-10 switch, and I am a relative novice working with smart switches, so bear with me. I added a VLAN VLAN 2 and WS-C3750V2-24PS-S assigned port 7 to it. So now there is the default VLAN 1 and VLAN 2.

I changed the system mode to Layer 3 from Layer 2 since I assume I need to do this in order for one VLAN to see devices on another. I have a dumb switch attached to…

Just checked out my old Foundry FES2402 switch and figured out that it's being on friendly terms with latest revision of internet protocol ;) ... And so, i successfully deployed it.

The theme of this year’s V6 World Congress, happening in Paris, March 19-22, is “Going Mobile.” With the advent of the Internet of Everything and the proliferation of mobile devices well underway, there will be a lot to talk about. And this year, you will have the unique opportunity to hear from leading service providers, including Verizon Wireless and T-Mobile, who have already made the…

I tested Marc Hause's new version of flood_router6, and it kills Windows Server 2012 and Mac OS X.

Abstract:…

My presentation will cover how reverse proxies can be used to provide an IPv6 entry point to existing IPv4 services.  I will cover what to look out for in dual stack implementations and some things to be aware of at the application layer.

IPv6 traffic is growing,  so some users out there have to originate their sessions with IPv6 preference, some IP networks recognize IPv6 access and some enterprises respond proudly when their quad A address gets resolved. The industry verticals, the networks and the countries leading the charge are not exctly what we expected even a couple of years ago. Based on some recent data and trends we will try to get at least some clarity as what to expect.

Looking forward to see you…

My presentation will share deployment experience from Cisco's internal network and focus on running IPv6 on large, public campus networks and IPv6-only WiFi. The session should be useful for anyone dealing with IPv6 roll out or BYOD environments.

I'm really looking forward to presenting at gogoNET LIVE! 3

I am going to present my take on IPv6 in the enterprise. Working mainly in the service provider space and with IPv6 I'm going take an outsiders look at IPv6 in the enterprise. I'll look at what I think is important to do to have a functioning setup in a world where IPv6 is growing and what benefits an enterprise can have of IPv6.

Looking forward to presenting an informational overview about the California IPv6 Task Force and the North American IPv6 Task Force.  I will review our mission, goals, and free membership for those who are interested in helping advance the IPv6 cause as part of our Not-For-Profit organization.

I am thrilled to be presenting the 1-day IPv6 Security tutorial (Nov 12) and IPv6 Troubleshooting presentation (Nov 14) at gogoNET LIVE! in San Jose.
