IPv6 training course benefits

IP version 6 (IPv6) is widely recognised as the protocol and network standard that the Internet, mobile networks, mobile devices, and indeed all IP networks, will migrate to.

This unique hands-on practical IPv6 training course provides an in-depth insight into IPv6 features, benefits, operation, co-existence with IPv4 and migration to IPv6.

Hands-on practical IPv6 course

This LEVER IPv6 course features extensive hands-on practical labs. Delegates work with current implementations of IPv6, including IPv6 on Cisco, Microsoft Windows 2000, Windows XP, Windows Server 2003, Linux and UNIX systems.

Who should attend IPv6 training?

Network managers, designers, consultants and support staff responsible for planning or supporting IPv4 networks, and all staff responsible for evaluating or implementing IPv6. Vendors of IPv4 and IPv6 products will find this IPv6 course invaluable.

IPv6 course pre-requisites

Delegates must have a thorough understanding of IPv4 protocols, addressing, implementation, configuration and testing on Microsoft Windows systems prior to attending this IPv6 training course. Course 313: IPv4 Protocols, Analysis, Troubleshooting and Support, or equivalent experience, is recommended.
