In this introduction, you will become familiar with what is different as well as what is the same with IPv6. Network engineers and systems engineers who are familiar with IPv6 addresses are welcome. This two part series will cover: - Public and private addresses - IPv6 Prefixes - IPv6 Address Structure - IPv6 Interface ID - IPv6 Addressing and Address Allocation Methods (stateless, statefull) - Address types, unicast, multicast, anycast - Address categories: global, site local, link local - Unique Local Unicast addresses - Zero compression - Special addresses (loopback, unspecified, IPv4 mapped IPv6) - Broadcast address elimination We will also do an introduction to *Neighbor Discovery (ND):* The Neighbor Discovery Protocol is one of key building blocks of IPv6, though it creates an alphabet soup of acronyms (NDP, RA, RS, NS, NA, DAD, MLD, SLAAC, RDNSS). We will describe how NDP works and its basic functions, including addressing and routing. - Neighbor Discovery Protocol (NDP) - Router Advertisements (RA) - Router Solicitation (RS) - Neighbor Solicitation (NS) - Neighbor Advertisement (NA) - Duplicate Address Detection (DAD) - Multicast Listener Discovery (MLD) - Stateless Address Autoconfiguration (SLAAC) - Router Advertisements for DNS (RDNSS) *Speaker:* Nalini Elkins is the CEO and Founder of Inside Products, Inc, and the President of the Industry Network Technology Council. Nalini is a recognized leader in the field of computer performance measurement and analysis and has been the founder or co-founder of three start-ups in the high-tech arena.
