Migrating to IPv6: See this Practical Guide to Implementing IPv6 in Mobile and Fixed Networks.DUBLIN, Ireland -- Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/reports/c31150) has announced the addition of Migrating to IPv6: A Practical Guide to Implementing IPv6 in Mobile and Fixed Networks to their offering. IPv6 is the future of the always on, mobile Internet Refers to gaining access to the Internet using a lightweight, handheld device. See Mobile IP, PDA, smartphone and mobile TV. . The new version is vital for making that self-restocking fridge scenario into a reality, as the old version (IPv4) is not able to cope with the number of individual machines and people that will need to be networked together in the future. Other business drivers for migrating to IPv6 include: transmitting data wirelessly (i.e. internet access See how to access the Internet. , messaging etc. via your mobile phone), creating home area networks that are constantly connected to the internet, evolving telecommunications systems which transmit voice over IP networks, and many more. There will be an explosion of books on the topic but many will just re-hash the specs (SPECificationS) The details of the components built into a device. See specification. and other information which is readily available online. This book is different in that it does not try to cover absolutely everything, it is not everything you ever wanted to know and quite a lot you didn't style reference book, but it is aiming to be a how to tutorial on implementing, applying and deploying the protocol. The value is in the author's experience-based advice and techniques for putting the technology to work. Some background facts: - Nokia are planning to build IPv6 into their new mobile handsets - 300 million phones. "I'd say there is a very good probability that the IPv6 spec will be mandated by the upcoming 3GPP GPP Government Performance Project GPP General Purpose Processor GPP General Physical Preparedness GPP Gambian People's Party GPP Good Pharmacy Practice GPP Gross Primary Productivity GPP Green Procurement Program GPP Generic Packetized Protocol (3rd Generation Partnership Program) wireless standard" said Steve Deering Dr. Steve Deering is a Technical Leader at Cisco Systems, where he is working on the development and standardization of architectural enhancements to the Internet Protocol. , a technical leader at Cisco Systems “Cisco” redirects here.

Deployed alongside current IPv4 networks, IPv6 will restore the full-fledge network necessary for Internet growth. Migrating to IPv6 gives a comprehensive overview of IPv6 and related protocols, the layers below IPv6 to the application and end-user layers. Author Marc Blanchet offers a direct and clear route to understanding the topic, taking a top-down approach Top-down approach A method of security selection that starts with asset allocation and works systematically through sector and industry allocation to individual security selection. and ordering topics by relevance. Tried and tested practical techniques and advice on implementation, applications and deployment provide how-to information on everything you need to know to put the technology to work. Migrating to IPv6: Provides a complete, up-to-date, in-depth, and accessible practical guide to IPv6. It demonstrates the theory with practical and generic examples and major implementation configurations, such as Windows, FreeBSD, Linux, Solaris, Cisco, Juniper and Hexago. It provides a comprehensive reference to key data structures and packet formats and summarizes topics in table and graphical form to give fast access to information, including over 200 figures. It also offers an accompanying website with extra coverage of specific topics, information on additional protocols and specifications, and updates on new features. This text will give network engineers, managers and operators, software engineers and IT professionals and analysts a thorough understanding of IPv6. Topics covered include: - IPv6 Rationale and Features - I Cant Wait to Get my Hands Dirty! - IPv6 Datagram - Addressing - Configuring Node Addresses. - Link-layer Integration - Internet Control Message Protocol - Naming with DNS and Selecting an Address. - Routing - Configuring Routing - Mobility - Wireless IP. - Security - Quality of Service - Multicast and Anycast - Deploying IPv6 in IPv4 Dominant Networks - Deploying IPv6 Dominant Networks with IPv4 Support - Migrating with Application Level Gateways - Transport Protocols. - Network Management - Porting Applications - Configuration and Usage of IPv6-enabled Open Source Software - Best Current Practices and Case Studies For more information visit http://www.researchandmarkets.com/reports/c31150 |
