Tutorial: IPv6 Familiarity Training

Lee Howard delivers a tutorial on IPv6 familiarity, addressing its addressing structure, subnetting, planning, and protocol mechanics, aiming to demystify the technology and make it less intimidating for network professionals. He discusses security aspects, dispelling myths around NAT and IPsec, and offers mitigation strategies for potential vulnerabilities like neighbor discovery and extension headers. Howard also explores transition mechanisms for moving to IPv6-only networks, such as 464XLAT, MAPT, and SIITDC, and provides resources for further learning, followed by an extensive Q&A session, where he addresses specific concerns and scenarios raised by the audience, ranging from address planning to security implementation and IPv6 adoption incentives for enterprise networks.
