Description
This training provides a detailed overview of the new version of IP, offering a structured presentation of the IPv6 protocol and the new concepts it introduces. This course also covers the related protocols that facilitate communication using the IPv6 protocol, such as Neighbor Discovery and Stateless Address Autoconfiguration. Techniques related to the IPv6 coexistence with IPv4 are also detailed: dual-stack, tunnelling and translation mechanisms. Lab sessions are used to verify and reinforce the theory presented in the training.
After completing the course, a certificate
is issued on the Luxoft Training form
