IP Version 6
This chapter begins with coverage of fundamental topics of IPv6, then progresses into IPv6
routing protocols and other key related technologies. As you will see, IPv6 has a great deal in
common with IPv4. Once you understand the IPv6 addressing format and basic configuration
commands, you should begin to feel comfortable with IPv6 as a Layer 3 protocol because it shares
so many of IPv4’s characteristics. IPv6 and IPv4 also have similar basic configuration options and
show commands.
