IPV6 networking with Cisco routers fundamentals

Overview

• Foundations of IPv6
• IPv6 routing and tunneling
• ISATAP, NAT-PT and 6to4
• Cisco ACLs and IPv6
• Configuring IPv6 support services on Cisco routers

The course is an instructor led course with extensive hands on laboratories. Approximately 30% of the course time will be devoted to hands on laboratories.

Course Benefits
The course provides a sound introduction to IPv6 and how to configure router interfaces for IPv6, to configure and troubleshoot IPv6 routing protocols and to configure Cisco routers to implement mixed IPv6 / IPv4 networks.

Practical Work
