Course Description Schedule Course Outline
 

This exclusive course covers the range of Cisco Products and solutions pertinent to IPv6 in a Service Provider environment, including carrier grade NAT, global routing protocols (in particular, MPBGP) and the Nexus and CSR products. As this course is intended for SEs at Cisco Channel Partners and network engineers and architects at Service Providers, the focus is on designing and implementing the solutions, rather than administering and troubleshooting. While this course covers the fundamental issues, theories and skills relevant to IPv6 in general, it pays particular attention to the problem sets among service providers, and applies proven Cisco solutions to migrate networks from IPv4 to IPv6.
The final day ends with an extensive Capstone Lab exercise, which covers the following objectives:

  • Configure IPv6 routing between PE and CE routers
  • Configure MP-iBGP to simultaneously run IPv6 and IPv4
  • Determine how labels are assigned and propagated across the MPLS backbone
  • Analyze the Cisco 6PE forwarding plane
  • Configure 6VPE on PE routers

Who should attend

This course is intended for:

  • Sales Engineers at Cisco Channel Partners supporting the Service Provider customers migrating to IPv6
  • Network Engineers at Service Provider organizations that need to design and implement IPv6 support into the company's service offerings

Prerequisites

  • CCNA or equivalent in experience. You need a firm grasp of IPv4 routing, switching and related concepts.

Course Objectives

After completion of this course, you will be able to:

  • Describe the factors that led to the development of IPv6 and possible uses of this new IP structure
  • Describe the structure of the IPv6 address format, how IPv6 interacts with data link layer technologies, and how IPv6 is supported in Cisco IOS Software
  • Implement IPv6 services and applications
  • Understand the updates to IPv4 routing protocols needed to support IPv6 topologies
  • Understand the updates to DNS Application needed to support IPv6
  • Understand multicast concepts and IPv6 multicast specifics
  • Evaluate Service Provider IPv6 scenarios and desired outcomes and identify the best transition mechanism for the situation
  • Describe security issues, how security for IPv6 is different than for IPv4, and emerging practices for IPv6-enabled networks
  • Describe the standards bodies that define IPv6 address allocation, in addition to one of the leading IPv6 deployment issues—multihoming
  • Describe the deployment strategies that service providers might consider when deploying IPv6
  • Describe Cisco IPv6-related products pertinent to the Service Provider Market
  • Understand migration strategies for IPv6 including dual stack, 6PE and 6VPE
  • Describe Customer Integration Strategies including IPv6 Access Services, tunneling and Carrier Grade NAT

Course Content

This customized course on IPv6 addresses the knowledge and skill requirements for engineers supporting IPv6 design and implementation for Service Provider customers. The course covers the range of Cisco Products and solutions pertinent to IPv6 in a Service Provider environment, including carrier grade NAT, global routing protocols (in particular, MPBGP) and the Nexus and CSR products. As this course is intended for SEs internal to Cisco, the focus is on designing and implementing the solutions, rather than administering and troubleshooting.
