IPv6 development Schulung: Designing and implementing
This customized course on IPv6 addresses the knowledge and skill requirements for engineers supporting IPv6 design and implementation for Service Provider customers. The course covers the range of Cisco Products and solutions pertinent to IPv6 in a Service Provider environment, including carrier grade NAT, global routing protocols (in particular, MPBGP) and the Nexus and CSR products. As this course is intended for SEs internal to Cisco, the focus is on designing and implementing the solutions, rather than administering and troubleshooting. Objectives include:
- Describe the factors that led to the development of IPv6 and possible uses of this new IP structure
- Describe the structure of the IPv6 address format, how IPv6 interacts with data link layer technologies, and how IPv6 is supported in Cisco IOS Software
- Implement IPv6 services and applications
- Understand the updates to IPv4 routing protocols needed to support IPv6 topologies
- Understand multicast concepts and IPv6 multicast specifics
- Evaluate Service Provider IPv6 scenarios and desired outcomes and identify the best transition mechanism for the situation
- Describe security issues, how security for IPv6 is different than for IPv4, and emerging practices for IPv6-enabled networks
- Describe the standards bodies that define IPv6 address allocation, in addition to one of the leading IPv6 deployment issues—multihoming
- Describe the deployment strategies that service providers might consider when deploying IPv6
- Describe Cisco IPv6-related products pertinent to the Service Provider Market
- Understand migration strategies for IPv6 including dual stack, 6PE and 6VPE
- Describe IPv6 Multicast Strategies including 6bone Connection Using 6to4 Tunnels
- Describe Customer Integration Strategies including IPv6 Access Services, tunneling and Carrier Grade NAT
