Synopsis

The implementation of IPv6 is essential to the continued growth of the Internet and the development of new applications. The Handbook of IPv4 to IPv6 Transition Methodologies provides a wealth of best practices and procedures that will help corporations plan and implement a smooth transition to IPv6.

A blueprint for successful transition, the Handbook of IPv4 to IPv6 Transition―

• Provides a tutorial of IPv6 addressing capabilities



• Looks at IPv6 network constructs, specifically key routing processes



• Examines IPv6 autoconfiguration techniques and the suite of IPv6-related protocols



• Discusses all the major IPv6 enterprise/institutional network migration mechanisms as well as coexistence issues



• Identifies the various elements in the network and what migration role they will need to play in order to support the transition



• Surveys the application and security aspects of the IPv6 transition



• Offers the first reference in many years to address the migration and macro-level scalability requirements to support the DoD/DISA/GAO drive for an IPv6-based U.S. Government

From the Back Cover

Coined as the next generation protocol, IPv6 will solve the arduous problem of limited IP addresses and improve internetworking capabilities. However, during the 3-6 year transition period, IPv6 and its predecessor, IPv4, will have to successfully coexistent in order to ensure service continuity. This handbookdemonstrates how to meet the migration and macro-level scalability requirements needed to support the DoD/DIS/GAO drive for an IPv6-based U.S. Government migration. It discusses capabilities, network constructs, Autoconfiguration techniques, the suite of IPv6, and related protocols. It also examines Enterprise/Institutional network migration scenarios and techniques to introduce IPv6 into carrier networks.
