This course reviews IPv6 and takes the student to the next levels of designing and deploying IPv6 networks based on the current standards and practices. IPv6 is the new Internet Protocol specification and implementation that uses 128 bit addressing where IPv4 uses 32 bits. This presents many new areas of expertise for network designers and administrators to learn and experience. The IP6FD course has in-depth coverage of IPv6 design and deployment for DNS, DHCP, integrating IPv6 in an IPv4 network, and Multicast.
