Description

IP version 6 (IPv6) shares some of the same security concerns and considerations as IP version 4 (IPv4). However, some IPv6-specific vulnerabilities and threats will affect how you develop and implement a strategy to protect IPv6 infrastructures and services. This course explains the need for IPv6; describes the fundamental features of IPv6; and analyzes the IPv6 addressing scheme, components, design principles, and configuration. It then evaluates how common and specific threats affect IPv6. Finally, it recommends best practices to protecting IPv6 networks.
