Product Description

Product Description

Running IPv6 explains how to install and operate the IPv6 protocol for Windows XP, Mac OS X, FreeBSD, Red Hat Linux, and Cisco routers. The book also covers DNS and BIND, Zebra, Apache 2, and Sendmail. While IPv4 uses 32-bit addresses, IPv6 addresses are 128 bits long, and allow for more unique addresses. While the adoption of IPv6 wont be immediate, it is necessary. Running IPv6 compares and contrasts IPv6 to IPv4, and discusses the advantages and disadvantages of each. Because most major software and hardware vendors have (or will) adopt IPv6, the focus of this book is to leverage your existing knowledge of IPv4 and to help you apply that knowledge to the newer protocol.

4.0 out of 5 stars Good jump-start to IPv6, 25 Oct 2007
By Paul Jakma - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This book seems to be a pretty comprehensive "jumpstart" into IPv6. It covers the rationale for IPv6, before diving into a fairly thorough walk-through of configuring systems for IPv6, from host addressing and routing and on to applications. There are also good chapter on IPv6 internals, for those interested, and security.

The book is mostly practical, focused on the operational issues of IPv6 primarily, providing both the background of understanding and, usually, configuration examples of the (many) technologies discussed. The book is also sprinkled with interesting digressions, helpfully boxed off to avoid distracting from the main content. For those already familiar with IPv6, the book won't be too interesting. Even so it covers so many technologies and platforms (e.g. 6to4 configuration for various platforms) there may still be useful or interesting information, particularly in the background provided.

For those needing to get to speed quickly on IPv6, this book may give a comprehensive, yet concise, insight into real-world IPv6 operation.
