IPv6 for Enterprise Networks Practical Guide for the deployment of IPv6 on campus, WAN / branch, data center and virtualized environments Shannon McFarland, CCIENo. 11737 IPv6 for the Enterprise Networks brings together all the information you need to successfully deploy IPv6 on every campus, WAN / branch, data center, or virtual environments. They show how IPv6 affects the existing network design, describing the general mechanism for IPv4/IPv6 coexistence, guide you in planning, and examples of this configuration is validated to build a laboratory, pilot, and production networks. The authors first review some of the drivers behind the accelerated deployment of IPv6 within the enterprise. Up-to-date and practical, IPv6 for Enterprise Networks is an indispensable resource for every network engineers, architects, managers, and consultants who must evaluate, plan, migrate, or manage an IPv6 network.
