Handbook of IPv4 to IPv6 Transition

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.

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
